LO1 |
Carrier, 1851 (1¢) Franklin. Two huge margins, others sides full, bright color, clear strike of Philadelphia red star cancel, stamp affixed to Sep. 5th 1851 blue folded letter to Monson Mass. bearing
3¢ orange brown (10), position 86L1i, tied by blue "Philadelphia Pa. Sep 5" cds, Extremely Fine appearance, Sold as is., ex-Schenck, Burrus, Golden, with 2000 P.F. certificate declining opinion on LO1 originating. Scott Nos.
LO1; $8,000 as off-cover stamp.
According to Luff, the Franklin Carrier stamps were issued on September 21, 1851 with the earliest known use of October 28, 1851. The date of this cover predates distribution of the Franklin Carrier stamps
in October 1851, and therefore we believe the carrier stamp does not belong on this cover. (Image1)
