VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE WESTBOUND 40-CENT TRANS-MISSISSIPPI POST OFFICE EXPRESS COVER WITH THE HANDSTAMPED "PAID". THIS IS THE ONLY RECORDED WESTBOUND EXAMPLE WITH THIS MARKING.
The Krieger census lists this cover (E17) but at the time the census was published a full picture of it was not available. The census lists only two handstamped "Paid" Trans-Mississippi Express covers -- one Eastbound and this one Westbound.
Ex Kohn. With 1987 A.P.S. and 1990 C.S.A. certificates, neither of which mentions any flaws (Image)
FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE 40-CENT WEST-BOUND GOVERNMENT TRANS-MISSISSIPPI EXRPRESS RATE PAID WITH THE 20-CENT GENERAL ISSUE AND DIRECTED "PER EXPRESS VIA BRANDON MISS."
This cover was sent by Private Robert R. Hanks of the the 9th Louisiana Infantry, to his wife. Hanks was captured as a POW at the Rappahannock River on Nov. 11, 1863 and was exchanged in March 1864, just before this cover was sent.
Krieger Census no. E20. From our 1983 and 1987 Rarities sales. With 1983 P.F. certificate (Image)
