Two-page compilation of fancy cancels, 1857-90s, 37 in total, 22 of which are on 2¢ green Washingtons (#213), but include an 1857 3¢ with two large-part "PAID" straightlines, a #68 with what appears to be two shields, a San Francisco cogwheel on #71, plus several other Bank Notes to the 15¢ value; strike types include stars, crossroads, sunbursts, flowers, a monogram, etc.; most in black as usual, but two in bright blue and one in magenta; stamps' centering varies but all generally sound, F.-V.F. or better, a pretty little holding.
