Hanks Esqr, Atlanta, Ga. The Hanks Correspondence is well known. Capt J. A. R. Hanks was the Asst Quartermaster for the State of Georgia.

What is interesting about this cover is that both types of the BLUE Tuskegee, Ala, postmarks are on one cover. Unexplained as to how the cover was returned to Tuskegee from Saltville to be used a second time from Tuskegee. One back flap is missing, and the cover has been opened for display. Some very minor soiling and a little corner wear.
