CSA #5 USED (4-Margin and decent color with just a little edge gum toning)
tied to small piece with an excellent strike of the Warrington, Fla CDS 14
OCT (1862). Usage is well after the fall of the Pensacola-Warrington
area to the Union in MAY 1862 and represents usage from Pollard, Ala
as the Warrington postmaster fled north to Pollard (just across the state
line north of Pensacola) where he continued to service army mail using
the Warrington, Fla postmark at least into NOV 1863. There are only a
small handful of examples of the CSA #5 stamp either on or off cover
showing a Florida postmark. Very scarce usage. Very Fine. See CS-0541
above for another example with the Warrington, Fla postmark on the 10c
Rose Stamp.
