    1848: POST PAID 2 d. blue on white paper, position 1 on the sheet of 12 subjects, used on cover to Calcutta, dated 2 July 1849, good to very large margins, tied by circular bar grid cancel in black, with 'Mauritius Crown GPO' datestamp in black alongside, to reverse a 'Calcutta / Ship Letter / 1849 / JY 30 / Inland Bg. "1", Ship Do. "2", Total "3 annas", stamp exhibits the "dry" or "sticky" impression which is associated with stamps from the "EARLIEST IMPRESSION", some ink erosion to the address, however very attractive, a great rarity of classic philately with an exemplary philatelic pedigree.rnRemark: The cover was part of a 'find' of covers originating from the same correspondence, all written in the same hand, addressed to "...Dutt / Calcutta or Bordeaux", all of which bear the 2d. blue on white paper used between May and July 1849. In the "Kanai" sale it was confirmed that this example comes from a sheet, or series of sheets, printed at the same time and having the dry or sticky appearance which confirms the stamp is from the 'Earliest' Impression. rnProvenance: Collection W.

    Confederate States 1861: 5 c. green, Stone 1, a fine horizontal pair with large margins all round, used on 1861 cover to Manassas Junction, VA., cancelled by eight bar grill in blue with "SANDERSVILLE / Ga." alongside in blue (Dec 21). Addressed to one Ivy W. Duggan of Col. Toombs's Brigade in the 15th Georgian Regiment who later wrote of the Battle of Antietam: “[enemy] advanced in great numbers, and were already in good range of our trusty Enfield’s. The order to fire was obeyed with the greatest alacrity. For some time the enemy preserved an admirable line, but at length it began to waver, we leaped the fence, raised a yell, and pushed the scattered fugitives over ground strewn with their own fallen. New lines of reinforcements were met in the same manner….[We] had no reinforcements [but] chivalry [was] displayed on this occasion, while our little regiment loaded itself with laurels, [which] challenges admiration beyond everything I have ever witnessed. I have never seen it equaled before! I never expect to see it again.” Scott = $ 475.
