1284 CVR   imageOld Time Group of GB Penny Red Covers, we counted roughly 350 covers, including envelopes, folded letters, mourning envelopes, etc. all bearing a Penny Red adhesive (imperforate, perforated, with stars, letters, etc.). Fewer than 200 of these covers have a typewritten information label glued on, usually describing the stamp and its cancel. Also includes three glassines of on and off paper Penny Red stamps (perhaps a hundred or so). A great lot for stamp or postmark study, do expect many faults, including several fronts, torn open, etc. Nevertheless there are many fine to very fine covers included, see our overview photos.
