#26, fine, sound, canceled by two XF strikes of
tiny face-like killer with VF TAYLOR, NY postmark on unreduced
cover with small piece of back flap missing in the middle.
Simpson's lists this as killer #262 on page147. However, the
tracing is taken from a worn example and looks like a letter V in
circle. The killer impression on this stamp clearly shows
two detached "comma-like" brows and a dash nose, all separated.
A terrific fancy cancel cover! (HCS) |
