#1, 5c Brown, horizontal pair, clear to mostly large margins, tiny scissor cuts in the right margin only well away from the stamp, gorgeous brown shade and highly detailed early printing impression, tied by twice struck red grid to 1848 folded letter to New Orleans, matching "Providence, R.I./Oct 5" datestamp and "10" rate handstamp, very fine; unlisted in the Alexander census.
