HB30

CSA #1 Stone 1 (not plated) (4-Margin) and CSA #4 Stone 2 Position 18 (a very dry printing with the margin a little close on the right and a small pre-affixing edge tear at the upper left which does not detract) used in combination to make the 10c rate. Each stamp is tied by a separate strike of the same Richmond, Va CDS Powell Type 3a 16 JUL 1862. Coarse brown paper cover addressed to Miss Joyce Clopton, Tebeauville near Waresboro, Georgia. Period docketing at lower left in blue ink "July 10th, 13th, 15th / 62"  of unknown significance. May refer to previous letters. Cover likely sent by a boyfriend or relative in a Georgia unit in Virginia. Scarce combination use with the 5c Green and the 5c Blue to make the 10c rate. Very Fine. Signed "Dietz" on the back with his short note, Ex-Rosenburg, Ex-Kaufmann.
