Notes
Scott #1 Orange Brown Shade 1847 5c Franklin Stamp On ;Cover ~ New York To Conn
1847 5c orange brown Franklin (Scott #1) single tied by red square grid cancel on folded cover sent from New York City Accompanying red DEC12 New York circular datestamp at left. The stamp has nice margins all around and exhibits bright impression of this uncommon 1847 Issue color shade. An extremely fine example of this beautiful 5c 1847 Issue color shade on folded cover from New York.
EBAY lot (nystampman)

From the images, this appears to be a cover front and not a complete cover.
EBAY lot amended to correct stamp shade as "brown."
