    Mail Boat Obliterations / Atlantic Packets / Cunard Line 1862 (Sept 18): Crested mourning envelope and complete original contents addressed to the Fernie family in Berkhampstead, written on board the "Steam Ship Persia" franked by single 1857 1 d. red, Die II, Alphabet III, plate 52, slightly defective and crossed by fold due to contents, tied by bold strike of "A96" obliterator in black. Reverse with Liverpool transit cds (Sept 20). The contents note: "We left New York on the 10th & I hope this will be posted in Queenstown...ship rolling so much I can hardly write". This explains the rate - the letter was posted in British waters and thus just a single 1 d. rate was due. Despite faults a very scarce cover. Cert. RPSL (2007).rnProvenance: Spink, London, 7 March 2007, lot 1147; Collection Dr. D.N. Seaton, Cavendish, Derby, 10 Sept 2014, lot 14.
