Great Britain
1841-53 One Penny Red-Brown
Plate 30: ML, small to good margins all round, tied to entire letter to Catterick by a very fine strike of the distinctive Maltese Cross cancellation of Tadcaster, clear dated markings of 26 and 27 May 1843 on the reverse; the entire letter is a trifle soiled in places, some small tears or splits along the folds and has been refolded in places. Only one cover, a 1d. pink envelope and a 1d. red on part cover are recorded, making this new discovery the only recorded example on a full 1d. red cover
