ONE OF MOST OUTSTANDING HAWAII 1857 5¢ ON 13¢ PROVISIONAL SURCHARGE USAGES - SIGNED STANLEY ASHBROOK, "IN MY OPINION THIS SUPERB COVER IS GENUINE IN EVERY RESPECT".

This cover was carried on the American schooner "Vaquero" departing Honolulu June 27th but returned to the harbor with a broken mast and sailed again after repairs on June 30th. She arrived in San Francisco on July 16th. From there it was carried on the PMSC "John L. Stephens" that departed San Francisco on July 20th, 1857 for Panama City (August 3rd arrival).

The Gregory census lists 18 covers with the 5¢ on 13¢ surcharge, with this U.S. 10¢ + 3¢ postage overpaying the 12¢ rate by 1¢. The 5¢ provisional surcharge was necessary due to a shortage of 5¢ stamps just after the transition from Postmaster Whitney to Jackson. Most were made by Jackson's clerk, Alvah Clark, around the start of 1857. New supplies of the 5¢ stamp (Scott No. 8) were received at the end of June 1857. Scott $55,000

ONE OF THE FINEST STRIKES OF THE "LATE LETTER MAIL" CIRCULAR HANDSTAMP.

This cover was forwarded in the stationers store of J.M. Oat & Co. after the Post Office was closed. It was carried to the docks where the rare "Late Letter Mail" marking was applied.

This mark reflect payment of an extra fee for processing a late letter. Starting in mid-1882, letters brought to the Honolulu Post Office after the posted closing time for a mail shipment were charged an additional 5¢ fee to have their letters included in the mail. The fee was charged more to discourage the practice of bringing in late letters than for revenue. Est. $3,000-4,000 (Image)
