VERY FINE. A COLORFUL AND EXTREMELY RARE USE OF THE NEW ORLEANS PROVISIONAL ON A CONFEDERATE 10-STAR FLAG PATRIOTIC POSTMARKED OUTSIDE NEW ORLEANS.
This cover was posted aboard a steamer with the stamp uncancelled. It was transported to Grand Gulf Miss., where it entered the mails and received its postmark (used to cancel the provisional stamp). It then travelled a few miles inland to Port Gibson.
We are aware of nine patriotic covers with the 5c New Orleans provisional stamp, including red and blue Flag and Cannon designs and the unique "Soldier" design in black (offered in this sale as lot 554). The 10-Star Flag on this cover has a distinctive pattern of stars; another example used from Evergreen La. on June 1, 1861, is offered in this sale as lot 540. The design was later modified by adding an eleventh star to the center (see lot 575 for an example).
