1899 #78 3¢ Numeral bisect tied by Upper Stewiacke, NS (JA 7 99) along with #74 1/2¢ Numeral to Truro, NS bs. Although not tied across the bisect, the rate is 2¢ paying the newly enacted 2¢ rate (Jan 1 1899). It is likely mailed from the dealer Cox, and occurs at the same time as the Port Hood bisect. I would suggest that he tried to invent covers for sale like the Port Hood example. There are documented instances of postmasters in Nova Scotia being reprimanded for hording stamps for personal sale. (Image)
