BE135

CSA #1 Stone 2 two singles used as a pair Position 19 and 20 off-cover (4-Margin) tied together by an excellent strike of the Afton VA C RR (Virginia Central Railroad) CDS 10 FEB (1862). One of only three recorded examples of this scarce railroad postmark. The stamps have not been removed from the exhibit mount. These stamps were used as an illustration on Page 322 of the Collectors Guide to Confederate Philately Second Edition and are the subject of a Mar-Apr 2002 Confederate Philatelist article. Very Fine.
