Handstamp PAID 2 Drop Letter with the Richmond,
Va CDS Dietz Type I. Very coarse paper homemade adversity cover with
Military Address to Dr. Armistead R. Mott Care of Maj Gen D. H. Hill,
Richmond, Virgina. The addressee was the Chief Surgeon on the staff of
Gen D. H. Hill and held the rank of Major. Over the Richmond postmark is
the outline of gum showing that a stamp had been applied probably by
mistake over the postmark and then removed. On examination, the postmark
is clearly under the residual of the remaining gum left behind. There was no
need for a stamp as the “PAID 2” mark indicated full payment for the drop
letter usage. Few minor edge faults and a little light foxing but a scarce
PAID 2 drop letter handstamp usage on a very presentable cover.
