Postal History
1828 (18 Sept.) entire letter from Knutsford to Dublin, redirected to Kilkenny, rated "3/3" the "5/3", showing superb strikes of the red framed "t.off/postage to dublin/not paid" (struck just off the edge of the cover) and "registered/20/se/1828" alongside; the address panel with a closed tear at top well clear of the strikes. A wonderful combination of very rare marks. Photo
