VERY FINE. A COLORFUL AND RARE TRANSATLANTIC 1847 ISSUE COVER CARRIED TO THE PORT OF DEPARTURE BY NEW YORK & NEW HAVEN RAILROAD.

Very few 1847 covers to foreign destinations are known with railroad route agents' markings. The census at the U.S. Classics Society website lists 22 covers used with this particular route agent's marking, but this is the only one to a foreign destination.
