Lot Details
1840 1d black, Plate 8 joined vertical strip of 8 lettered BC-BJ on South Petherton, Somerset addressed entire. Cancelled by multiple strikes of red Maltese Cross cancels with JA 22 1841 b/s. Letter contains 3 full pages of hand written testimony in this solicitor's correspondence regarding a bad debt claim illegally settled with the pre-emptive seizure of numerous goods all listed. Two filing folds vertically through the strip & uneven margins from “cut into” to parts of the adjoining stamps from above but nothing detracts from one of the largest known multiples of the Penny Black on cover. Exceptional! SG 1, Cat. £6000++
