Banknote Stamps (#3)

Item # Description Price Picture
4139 #156, VF-XF, large margins, sound, canceled by a VF+ strike of blue checkerboard killer of Chicago, IL. Small paper inclusion on reverse only. Pretty. $30
4056 #156, fine block of 4, moderate cork killer, fresh rich color, top right stamp with small corner crease at UR, no separations, scarce multiple. $50
3605 #206, fine, cancelled by an XF SOTN strike of PITTSFORD, VERMONT fancy oval postmark with interior design. Neat.  (Click image for enlargement.)

SOLD

2460 #158, F-VF+, sound, bearing a VF strike of a blue negative star of David in circle killer. Fresh stamp.

SOLD

1742 #158, VF, bearing a VF strike of a very rare, possibly unique, Rutherford B. Hayes presidential campaign killer. The stamp shows "[H]AYES" in italicized capital letters within upper and lower horizontal bars of an apparently oval shaped killer. This particular killer is not listed in Cole, which lists two from Carmel, NY and one from Waterbury, CT.  Nevertheless, I consider this killer to be entirely genuine.  An incredible item and a showpiece for any collection.  (Click the image to view an enlargement.) $200

SOLD

1306 #184, VF+ bottom margin copy, sound, bearing an XF strike of an unusual elongated diamond grid cancellation composed of nine narrow barrows (unlisted in Cole). $10
1349 #183, fine, sound, bearing an XF SOTN strike of 6-branch leaf fancy cancellation, probably from Detroit, MI (Cole GL-80/81).

1347 #178, F-VF+, sound, tall stamp, bearing a superb, nearly complete SOTN strike of fancy negative Maltese cross cancellation of New York City. Wow.
