Notes
Lot 915 1847 10c George Washington on Cover. Mailed at New Orleans in October and addressed to New London, CT. Stamp is a nice four margin example and is tied to the cover with an oval barred cancel in red. Back flap is missing and has some minor corner and edge faults. Otherwise an attractive clean cover with a 1989 Roger Calves certificate. Scott $1350
