The William H. Gross Collection: 1847 and 1851-56 Issues continued...

Carriers and Locals Used with 1847 Issue continued...
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
266 c Image10c Black (2). Large to huge margins, gorgeous sharp early impression, tied by two clear strikes of red square grid cancel, matching "New-York Jan. 19" circular datestamp on 1848 folded letter on Tradesmen's Bank letterhead to Pittsburgh Pa., mostly clear strike of "Swarts' B. Post Office N.Y. Chatham Square" red oval handstamp at lower left, light fold

EXTREMELY FINE. A SUPERB QUALITY 10-CENT 1847 ISSUE COVER CARRIED TO THE MAILS BY SWARTS' CHATHAM SQUARE LOCAL POST.

Although the Meyersburg census records 14 covers with the 5c 1847 Issue and various handstamped Swarts markings, only two 10c 1847 covers with the Swarts handstamp are listed (Chronicle 156, p. 244). This cover is a third example, and it is by far the finest.

Signed Ashbrook. Ex Caspary, Hart and Boker. (Image)
