18, Facit 16a, Yellow-Brown and Greenish Blue [1901 4 Cent Bicolor, Perf 12.75, Normal Frame] Used horizontal PAIR with VF centering (right stamp with rounded corner perf) and nearly complete CHRISTIANSTED 6 July 1905 cancellation. On small piece with left stamp "marked off" by red crayon. This type of marking-off is usually seen when an invalid stamp has been used (such as an obsolete / demonetized stamp, foreign stamp, charity label, or a re-used stamp). In this case, the stamps were valid postage -- I can only guess that the marked-off stamp was considered excess (overpaid) and the postal clerk was "preserving" it for future use by marking it off. I do not recall previously seeing this type of situation from DWI or any country [I welcome further information]. Very attractive and interesting! ACTUAL item. |

Scott #18 ROUGH PERFORATION VARIETY, Facit #16b, AFA #7B.4, Brownish Yellow and Clear Blue [1901 4 Cent Bicolor, Perf 12.75, Normal Frame, 1902 second printing of this perforation] Mint, NO GUM, with VF centering. The rough perforation variety on this printing is surprisingly scarce, but even more so in Unused (with or without gum) condition. Very attractive in all respects. This is the scarcer of the two printings of this perforation (in both Mint and Used); nice examples of this color are hard to find -- and even harder to find with the rough perforation variety. ACTUAL item. |

THOMAS" cancellation. "Perfect" centering and very attractive in all respects. This is the scarcer of the two printings of this perforation (in both Mint and Used); such nice examples are hard to find, even of only single stamps! ACTUAL item. |

United States, New York: "PAQU(EBOT) / N.Y. (... DIV)" nicely struck New York incoming ship mail 2-line cancellation which was used on uncanceled mail, presumably mailed on board ship. On Scott #18 Clear Blue Printing [1901 4 cent Bicolor, Perf 12.75, Normal Frame] with VF+ centering and bright color. This example is the Second (Perf 12.75) Printing with Clear Blue center color. When complete (it cannot fit on a single stamp) this cancellation is in the 2-line format "PAQUEBOT / (N.Y. 2D DIV.)" with the "2D" being other possible numbers and letters. This cancellation is usually only seen on stamps in the 1900-1910 era. Attractive and scarce. ACTUAL item. |
