#4 Stone 2 Plated as Position 38 (4-Margin with just a
little gum toning at the top edge) tied by a weak strike of the Belton,
Tex CDS 1 JUN (1862) with a second stronger strike of
the same CDS to the left. Adveristy Cover as the stamp
was affixed directly over the embossing of a 3c Red Star Die.
The stamp has been lifted and moved to the left so that the Star Die
can be demonstrated. Addressed to Mrs. Junius W. Smith, Fort Worth
Tarrant County, Texas via Dallas. The adressee was the wife of a
prominent attorney in the area. Covers referenceing both Fort Worth and
Dallas together at this time are very scarce as the major town in the
area during the war was Weatherford in Parker County. Cover with a
minor reduction at the left not affecting anything, otherwise a Very
Fine Adversity Cover. Ex-Kramer. |
