EXTREMELY FINE EXAMPLE OF THE 24-CENT KIRKPATRICK & GAULT ENCASED POSTAGE.
Joseph Kirkpatrick was a small-time munitions importer and president of the United States Dispatch Company in New York City. He became John Gault's partner in the summer of 1862. According to research by Fred L. Reed III, Gault and Kirkpatrick probably met through a mutual business associate, William V. Barkalow. The Kirkpatrick & Gault encasements solicited "Applications for Advertising on this Currency" and gave the 1 Park Place address.
The Reed census assigns an R-6 rating to the 24c Kirkpatrick & Gault (16-20 known).
