image 5c red brown Franklin Imperforate on 1850 Folded Cover, mailed from Calais, Maine (lovely c.d.s. in red) to New York City and docketed inside "NOV.6.1850".

There is a horizontal crease near the bottom of the cover, affecting the bottom corner of the left stamp only, still a very fine and appealing cover. (Image)
