PLATE 139 - '(C)I-C(H)' - ON COVER - Oct 1852 printed billhead (filing crease through stamp) to MONMOUTH (cds on the back, along with BRISTOL and GLOUCESTER) franked with a grossly mis-cut 1d red resulting in about one-third of stamp CI
(double letter I) and two-thirds of stamp CJ, tied by neat 134 numeral. An extraordinary use, possibly indicating some sort of mechanical separation? Purchased in 2010 for £320. Also another superb large margin 1d red, KI plate 130, for comparison.
