1847, 10¢ black. Three large margins, close at bottom, tied by bold red circular grid cancel, matching red "Boston '10cts' 1 Aug" cds on light gray cover originating in St. John, N.B. via Boston to Hamilton, Canada West, reverse with red "Forwarded by Favor's Package Express" framed handstamp, black "Queenston, U.C., Aug 4, 1850" exchange cds and manuscript "4½" pence due rating, red Hamilton (8.5) arrival backstamp, Very Fine, with 2018 P.F. certificate. Scott No. 2; Estimate $10,000 - 15,000.
THE ONLY RECORDED EXAMPLE OF THE 1847 ISSUE FORWARDED BY FAVOR'S EXPRESS, AND THE FINEST OF ONLY FIVE RECORDED STRIKES OF THE RECTANGULAR FAVOR'S EXPRESS HANDSTAMP.
This cover is one of a group of 10¢ 1847 Issue covers known originating from St. John N.B. carried via Steamer "Admiral" to Boston where entering the mails. This was the ship Favor used, he had a stateroom on board, but none of the other 1847 Issue covers have the forwarding handstamp struck. The Sep. 10, 1850 Eastport "Ship 2" use (ex-Sevenoaks, Mirsky) is also from the same correspondence as the cover offered here. Together they demonstrate a remarkable pair of 10¢ 1847 Issue covers originating from outside the United States borders, almost certainly St. John, mailed in transit to Canada. We know of no other comparable pair of 1847 Issue covers.
The five recorded rectangular Favor's express handstamps are dated July 8, 1850 to August 21, 1850. This is the only example bearing a stamped franking, the other four are all stampless. Est. $10,000-15,000 (Image)
