Turned Cover - Inside use handcarried outside the postal system to Mr. Manigault "Present" (Charleston SC) with endorsement "By Boat." Origin
of the use is not known, but delivered "By Boat' from somewhere to
Charleston Harbor. Flapped over from the lower right corner to
demonstrate the "By Boat" endorsement. The second outside use is CSA #6 (single use prior to the rate change) tied by the large single rim Charleston SC
CDS 23 MAY 1862. Addressed to Miss Louisa S. Gibbs, Flat Rock, Buncomb
County (NC). Cover was not forwarded. A mistake in the address was
lined through and corrected to Flat Rock. Very Fine. Ex-Kaufmann. |
