US 1840s Amazing #1 Nice Margins on Cover to Pastor in CT Red CDS NY 7R053
An amazing & RARE cover with 1840s Scott #1 with nice MARGINS to Reverend in Hartford, CT. Contains beautiful Red hand stamp cancel tying stamp to cover with Red New York CDS. A wonderful foundation or addition to any 19th Century Cover Collection! I have actively collected stamps and related philatelic materials since 1977. I fondly remember going with my uncle in the 1970s to the Rexall Drugstore where the Postmaster would show me many current and older issues in the little Post Office (the “Stamp Cage”) adjacent to the pharmacy counter while my uncle talked with his friend the pharmacist. I cherish those memories. I have added a fine selection of many stamps, covers and philatelic materials to my store.
