Notes
Schuyler J. Rumsey Inc sale 94 lot 2768 balance lot of 25 covers including 3 #1’s realized 1100
Scott #1 tied by CDS on DEC 13 cover from Charleston to Columbia, SC.
Not listed in Alexander
Special thanks to Michael O'Reilly for pointing out this lot and that these covers are from the Harvey Teal collection.
There is some doubling of the date in the cds with one image somewhat rotated. The first number is clearly a 1. The second number has a horizontal bar on top and a rounded curve at the bottom, making it a 3.
Letter to Samuel Wiley McAliley (1799-1880), attorney, State Senator and Assemblyman, pro-union during the Civil War, and one of the few men considered for Governor during Reconstruction.
