image [New York] RAIL/ROAD, Very Fine red rimless circle on a pristine folded address leaf from Palatine Bridge to Albany with a manuscript "10" rate and penciled "P. Bridge/ R R"; docketed Jan 1, 1842, believed to be the earliest recorded use of this marking, Very Fine.
Towle 114-B-5, VIII.

According to Towle, "Many of the folded letters of this period carry name of point of origin in script [hence P. Bridge], probably placed by agent to determine postage, as distance governed rate prior to change in 1845". The distance from Palatine Bridge to Albany was 57 miles, 10¢ being the rate for 30-80 miles.
