1517	FDC	563	#563, 11c Light blue, tied to first day cover along with 1c Green (#543) to pay the special delivery rate by seldom seen "Freemont, Ohio/Oct 4/1922" machine cancel, backstamped Lynn, Mass., edge tears at top and right with a couple of tiny pieces missing, not affecting stamps or markings, otherwise a fine example of this very rare first day cover; Freemont was the Birthplace of Rutherford B. Hayes and it had been announced that the stamp would go on sale there on the first day of issue, however production problems resulted in only a very small number of stamps being delivered for the official ceremonies (one of the first stamps to have such ceremonies), the result was that very few first day covers were made, mostly with an additional 1c stamp making the special delivery or registered rate, all are very rare with either handstamp or machine cancel and a total of only 51 covers are known.
