image PHILOCLESIAN FAIR, MAY 20, 1835 a complete and well struck red rimless 33mm marking and manuscript "12½" rate on outer folded letter sheet addressed to New Brunswick (NJ), sending would likely have cost the sender 1 bit (½real=12½c), tone spot and light aging, an Extremely Fine strike on a Very Fine cover; the marking falls into the same class as the well-known "Beehive" of New Haven, Conn.rnA privately applied handstamp (not a postal cancel) for the Philoclesian Fair which was, most likely, one of a number of fairs organized in the 1830s for fundraising purposes (similar to but less organized than the Sanitary Fairs of the Civil War period). There was a "Philoclean Society", founded in 1825 at Rutgers Univ (New Brunswick NJ), as a literary society and also a "Philolexian Society", a literary and debate organization, founded at Columbia Univ in NYCity in 1802; it is doubtful whether this marking is associated with either of these organizations. Aristophanes comedy "The Wasp" features a character named "Philoclean" and there may be a connection for a theater-group fundraising effort but, in the end, the marking remains a mystery. (Image)
