CSA #56x2 two singles
in
slightly different color shades (one stamp overlaps the other and there
are preaffixing corner edge tears on both stamps in the margin only
which do not detract) tied together and to the cover by the Memphis,
Ten CDS 15 JUL (1861). It has been suggested that
the left
stamp is
the rare pelure thin paper variety. But there are those who
do not
believe that such a variety even exists. Addressed to C. D.
Barksdale
Esq, Charleston, So. Ca. The addressee was Captain of Co L 1st SC Inf also
known as the Carolina
Light Infantry. Clean cover with a minor edge
repair at the top left and most of backflap missing, but still very
presentable and very exhibitable. |
