1144 CVR   imageNORMANTON STATION an 80% despatch strike G / DE 31 / 00 on a 1d lilac QV cover to Huddersfield, with clear Carleton St / Castleford receiver dated F / DE 31 / 00 on back.

The 3rd Supplement lists this one as the only one known, and therefore it would get a rarity factor of 500. Cover has small faults, which do not detract from this great rarity.
