Notes
Lot 503 Brattleboro, Vermont, 5c Black on Buff (5X1). Position 3, large margins to just touched at upper left including part of adjoining stamp at bottom, deep shade, unobtrusive strike of red "PAID" cancel at right
VERY FINE. A RARE SOUND EXAMPLE OF THE BRATTLEBORO POSTMASTER'S PROVISIONAL STAMP, FROM A NEW FIND AND OFFERED AT AUCTION FOR THE FIRST TIME.
The USPCS census records 53 stamps (33 off cover and 20 stamps on 19 covers). We can now add four additional off-cover stamps to this count (Positions 1, 3, 5 and 8), for a total of 57 known.
