1850-51 2 cents black on pale rose, Townsend Type A, with initials of postal official Smith “JBS”, cut round, usual defects, central Demerara datestamp OC 7 1851, one of the only two single examples remaining in private hands (two pairs, each on cover, are also known outside institutions) (SG £250’000) A tremendous world classic rarity, and the rarest value of the “Cotton-Reel” primitives. This 2 cents value was issued in 1851 to pay a local town letter rate (the Georgetown Penny Post), a service which was unpopular and little used. No town post usages are known to have survived.
