Cover |
Bermuda, 1873. Cover from Bermuda to London via New York, franked with the 1d, 2d, 6d, and 1s (SG 1, 4, 6, 8), representing 21 pence postage. The absence of contents precludes confirmation
of the rate basis, though the franking suggests payment by weight. Front bears two London E.C. duplex arrival handstamps dated 6 January 1873, a clear "LONDON-E.C. / F / PAID / 6 JAN 73" and a partially legible "LONDON-E.C. / P / PAID / 6 JAN 73,"
together with the Hamilton transit circular date stamp and red manuscript "1/3" rate marking. Crease through the upper left corner of the 1d and through the center of the 2d. F–VF. Estimate: $150–$200. (Image) (image2)
