The local stamp on cover from Illinois to Keokuk, Iowa, with manuscript "X" and "Good only at Chicago", intended to invalidate the local stamp. The cover is slightly reduced at left. Only three examples of 3L2 are recorded used on cover. This cover is an unrecorded example in prior censuses and represents a notable and unusual and most interesting usage of this scarce Chicago local.
