3173 FC Image3c Ultramarine (114). Vertical pair, tied by two mostly complete strikes of "KKK", Skull & Crossbones fancy cancel of Union Mills Pa.

VERY FINE. ONE OF THE FEW PAIRS KNOWN WITH THE RARE AND STRIKING UNION MILLS "KKK", SKULL AND CROSSBONES FANCY CANCEL.

Union Mills, Pennsylvania, was the source of several remarkable fancy cancel designs in the 1869-71 period, including the "KKK" Skull & Crossbones, Kleagle Mask (two versions) and the Horse in Hat designs. All indicate Ku Klux Klan activity in this Western Pennsylvania town during the immediate post-war Reconstruction period. John H. Beardsley was the postmaster for a brief period of time -- February 9, 1870, to March 16, 1871 -- which coincides with the creation and use of the Ku Klux Klan cancellations.

This is one of a small number of pieces salvaged from a correspondence. We know of three full covers with this cancel, one of which is in the Hirzel collection at the Swiss PTT Museum.

A VERY FINE STRIKE OF THE FAMOUS AND RARE CHRYSANTHEMUM FANCY CANCELLATION OF WATERBURY, CONNECTICUT.
