753 c Image2c Brown Red (8). Large margins all around, deep shade, tied by "Fayetteville N.C. Apr. 9, 1863" circular datestamp (year date is probably in error, most likely 1864) on green, brown and violet wallpaper cover addressed locally, slight edgewear and tiny edge tears

EXTREMELY FINE. AN EXCEEDINGLY RARE USE OF THE 2-CENT "RED JACK" STAMP ON A WALLPAPER COVER.

Both the C.S.A. and Scott catalogues list the earliest known use of the 2c Engraved as April 21, 1863. This April 9, 1863, postmark is a significantly earlier date and was identified as the earliest known use by Earl Antrim in The Confederate Philatelist (Dec. 1966). However, the Fayetteville postmarks of this period were frequently struck with a yeardate error, so this is likely an 1864 use and will not be returnable if an expertizing body declares it 1864 (Image)

757 c Image2c Brown Red (8). Horizontal pair, ample margins to barely touched, intense shade, tied by blue "Greensborough N.C. Mar. 12" (1864) circular datestamp on unsealed oatmeal cover to Westbrook N.C.

EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL QUALITY DOUBLE-RATE CIRCULAR WITH A PAIR OF THE 2-CENT "RED JACK". A PAIR ON COVER IS RARER THAN A STRIP OF FIVE.

The use of a pair of No. 8 by itself on a cover paying double the 2c circular rate is quite rare -- in fact rarer than a strip of five paying the 10c rate. We have encountered a few others, but none in this quality, the beauty of which is enhanced by a blue cancel.

Ex Caspary, where acquired by the Kilbournes in 1957 at the sale of his Confederate material (Image)
