The Artemis Collection of United States Fancy Cancellations continued...

Civil War Era Pro-Union Designs
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
18 c Image3c Dull Red, Ty. III (26). Tied by boldly-struck Waving Flag fancy cancel, "Penn Haven Pa. Sep. 5" circular datestamp on red and blue Waving Flag and "God Save the Union" Patriotic cover to Frenchtown N.J., with original 1861-dated enclosure, barely reduced at right, cover with small filing hole and few toned spots, stamp with small corner flaw at upper right

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A BEAUTIFUL EXAMPLE OF THE WAVING FLAG FANCY CANCEL ON A WAVING FLAG PATRIOTIC COVER. BELIEVED TO BE THE ONLY SUCH COMBINATION OF CANCEL AND STATIONERY WITH PRO-UNION FLAG MOTIFS.

Undoubtedly the postmaster took great pride in applying his hand-carved Flag fancy cancel on this red, white and blue Flag patriotic envelope, which mirrors his design. We first encountered this cover 25 years ago and have never seen another like it. (Image)
