BE24 Montpelier, Va Straight Line -- CSA #11c (AD) (4-Margin Greenish-Blue) off-cover with one strike of the Montpelier, Va Straight Line cancel (SL-10). The stamp has not been removed from its exhibit mount. The stamp is hinged on a card and the cancel partially reconstructed. One of only two currently known examples both of which are on off-cover stamps. A complete strike of Montpelier Straight Line was found on a cover but not canceling a stamp and was utilized in reconstructing the complete cancel. Very Fine. This stamp was used as the listing illustration on Page 377 of the new catalog. The stamp is also illustrated on Page 344 of the Collectors Guide to Confederate Philately Second Edition.
