Hawaii, 1851-52, 13¢ blue "Missionary". Type II, three margins, fourth at right ample to just touching the frame line, uncommonly strong color and impression, bright orange red San Francisco cds; magenta pen cancel removed; sealed tear at right, Very Fine appearance, ex-Brown, Crocker, Harris, Middendorf and Honolulu Advertiser, with 1995 P.F. certificate.
Scott No. 3; $29,000.

AN EXTREMELY RARE HAWAIIAN MISSIONARY CANCELED BY THE RED SAN FRANCISCO DATESTAMP.

This is actually one of the more desirable examples of this stamp, as is does not have margins or any portions of the design added as so many of the Hawaiian Missionaries do. The San Francisco orange-red cds was struck across the lower right corner probably as the post office processed prepaid mail for the next trip via Panama. The magenta manuscript cancel visible on this stamp in the Admiral Harris sale was removed before its next appearance at auction, indicates a very early use of the stamp.
