Notes
Scott #2, tied by New York City red square grid cancel on folded letter SEP 26 (1850) from New York to Cleveland, Ohio.
Alexander listed as 9/20/50
CDS is double (triple?) struck with a pronounced vertical shift, making the overlapping 6’s look like zeros. The break on the right side of the upper strike clearly indicates a 6.
This cover currently resides in the Charles A. Hirzel collection in the Museum für Kommunikation in Berne, Switzerland.
