EXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL AND RARE MULTICOLORED MAGNUS PATRIOTIC COVER WITH A SHIELD FANCY CANCELLATION, COUPLED WITH A MAGNUS LETTERSHEET.
The presence of a Civil War thematic fancy cancellation on a patriotic is always desirable and very rare. This elaborate Magnus design, used in conjunction with the distinctive Attleborough Shield and matched with a large portion of the original Magnus battle-scene lettersheet, is nothing less than a work of art. In our opinion, based on our experience and a review of Levi records, this is one of the most spectacular Civil War covers extant, appealing to both patriotic and fancy cancel collectors.
