Notes
Lot 442 5c #1 Dark brown, margins wide to clearing at bottom, tied dark red grids on 1850 FLS matching New York cds, clean & fresh, very pretty shade, F-VF
Kukstis sale 10 Feb 25, 1994
From the Thomas J Alexander Papers in the APRL
Alexander listed as xx/xx/50 in his notes but left out of the 2001 published census
Alexander questions the postmark and his notes include “See 8/10/50. Could tmk be New Haven?” That cover is illustrated in the census and does not match this one.
The HA of Haven is faintly seen in the CDS. The date is not.
