VA3389

CSA #11 (AD) (margin just a little irregular at the right and just touching at the left) tied by the BLUE Petersburg, Va CDS (date not fully apparent). Coarse light brown paper cover addressed to Mrs. Mollie E. P. Smith, Petersburg, Virginia. On the surface, this appears to be an overpaid drop letter. But "Petersburg" is lightly lined through, and the cover redirected to Fords Depot SSRR (South Side Railroad) Care T. Worthington Esq, Virginia. The redirection is in light pencil but still legible. With the redirection, the stamp pays the proper postage. Fords Depot is a listed CSA post office in Dinwiddie County on the railroad line about 20 miles from Petersburg. Cover with a little edge and corner wear but still a very clean appearance. Ex-Richard Hall.

$150.00
