#156, fine, tied by an XF-superb strike of New York
circular mail (NYCM) killer comprised of letter H encircled by 6
wedges on VF intact unsealed circular. This newly
discovered letter H killer constitutes, I believe, the now fifth
such NYCM killer incorporating this letter in its design. Note
in the detail stamp scan that the right vertical bar of the killer
has a hollow circular spot. Close examination reveals a
distinct indentation here on the stamp indicating a nail or screw
attachment at this spot. The envelope contains the
original printed flier for U.S. Life
Insurance dated Oct. 18, 1873. This is an important
NYCM cover. |
