 3c Rose (65). Tied by bold Shield fancy cancel, "Attleborough Ms. Jul. 20" circular datestamp on multicolored Magnus Camp Scene patriotic cover to Foxborough Mass., with part of original
Magnus enclosure depicting Siege and Capture of Fort Donelson and dated 1863, few perfs at top affected from placement at edge of coverEXTREMELY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL AND RARE MULTICOLORED MAGNUS PATRIOTIC COVER WITH A SHIELD FANCY CANCELLATION,
COUPLED WITH A MAGNUS LETTERSHEET. The presence of a Civil War thematic fancy cancellation on a patriotic is always desirable and very rare. This elaborate Magnus design, used in conjunction with the distinctive Attleborough Shield and matched
with a large portion of the original Magnus battle-scene lettersheet, is nothing less than a work of art. In our opinion, based on our experience and a review of Levi records, this is one of the most spectacular Civil War covers extant, appealing to
both patriotic and fancy cancel collectors. Illustrated in Chronicle (No. 220, p. 316). Ex Mitchell (Image) Search for comparables at SiegelAuctions.com |
