RARE CLOTH-COVERED DUPLEX COVERS - 4d RATE TO FRANCE + INTERNAL 2d...更多
RARE CLOTH-COVERED DUPLEX COVERS - 4d RATE TO FRANCE + INTERNAL 2d RATE, ETC; 7/15 Sept. 1869 E/env. pair to St. Malo/Poole franked by single 4d Vermilion (filing crease) or 1d Reds pair; all are tied by very fine "BRISTOL/134" Duplexes clearly showing the impressions affected by some kind of cloth - though to be a brief experiment with cloths placed over the heads of the Duplex to reduce the consumption of ink (without affecting thoroughness of obliteration); this trial is thought to have lasted for only 3 months in Bristol and to only have affected a proportion of the letters cancelled. Rare pair. [The second ex Martin Willcocks, 1977; £90.] Plus 1879 env. with 1d Red ex Birmingham with v. fine "EVESHAM" arrival cds backstamp clearly showing the same 'cloth-covered' strike. It seems likely that the scheme was successful for backstamps (e.g. railway TPOs in Scotland) but not for cancellation purposes (due to faint strikes...). (3 covers) Cross Reference : WORCESTERSHIRE, OVERSEAS DESTINATIONS (Estimate 150 GBP)
