United States 1845: Postmaster’s 5 c. black on bluish paper, a fine horizontal pair with large margins all round and imperceptibly touched at base of right hand stamp, both stamps with minor ironed bends used on 1846 entire letter to Washington, NC and cancelled by lightened signatures and blue ink crosses. Red PAID at left and ‘NEW YORK /10 Cts.’ cds at right (Dec 9). Despite the minor imperfections, a very scarce multiple of this stamp on an attractive entire. Cert. Philatelic Foundation (2015) Scott = $ 2'000.
