Lot 137
United States nineteenth century covers, spectacular selection of about 50 better covers from 1851s through locals, loaded with nice usages, better cancels, advertising, Western Express Co. franks (Wells Fargo Mokelumne Hill, Freeman & Co. Columbia, Truman & Co. San Francisco, and Pacific Union San Francisco with all-over druggist ad), locals #5L1, 20L2, 136L9 (latter two tied by hs. cancels, the Swarts with a 3¢ #11) and much, much more. A wonderful lot, virtually all VF, that must be seen to be appreciated.
