#551, 576, 585-87, 617-19 |
#551, 576, 585-87, 617-19, An amazing eight stamp combination first day cover, an unusual array of stamps were issued on April 4, 1925, a new 1/2c Olive brown of the
flat plate perf. 11 series was issued on this day, as was the flat plate 1 1/2c Yellow brown imperforate (pair), 4c, 5c and 6c values of the rotary press perf. 10 series and the 1c-5c Lexington-Concord commemoratives, apparently few first day cover
makers put all of this together, but a 1 1/2c Brown legal size 8 entire addressed to Miss Helen Anderson of Mount Rainier, Maryland has all eight of these stamps tied by "Washington/D.C./Apr 4/1925" duplexes, this cover was serviced by Hammelman and
dispatched by special delivery, it was backstamped in Mount Rainier the next day, slight edge wear typical of this size cover and some mounting marks on the reverse, none of which affects any of the stamps or markings, very fine; combinations of
various elements of this franking are met with frequently, except for the combination of the 4c, 5c and 6c Regular issue of which only a very few are known, but the combination of all eight stamps from these unrelated issues is unbelievably rare
and a great combination First Day Cover rarity. (Image) |

#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. (Image) |
