folded letter dated December 28, 1831 addressed to Georgetown, South Carolina, manuscript "Way 11" (10c postage due plus 1c way fee), endorsed "Pr Wilton Stage", fine, this cover was most likely given to a stage driver near the Willtown Plantation along the stage route (with the endorsement "Wilton" being a phonetic misspelling), this origination would correctly place the cover within 30-80 miles of Georgetown indicative of the 10c due rate
11 covers from the late-18th and early-19th Centuries, most endorsed "By Stage", "Per Stage", or with a way marking, also 1857 3c on cover with "Gould House, Valparaiso, Indiana" cornercard advertising stage services, some faults to be expected but generally fine to very fine, an interesting group which would lend itself well to further research and investigation
margins large to full, just tied by pen cancel to locally-addressed cover, bit of water staining, otherwise very fine (Scott $150)
margins huge to touching with left sheet margin and portion of adjacent stamp at top, affixed but not cancelled on locally-addressed cover, light wear, very fine (Scott $150)

large to full margins, tied by manuscript "K" cancel (for carrier John King) to locally-addressed lettersheet, 1860 docketing, very fine use (Scott $300)
margins full to grazing, tied by pencil cancel alongside 1857 3c Dull red tired by blue "Baltimore Md. Mar 5" datestamp, embossed corner card for "Dealer in Guano, Grain & Seeds", 1858 docketing, very fine and attractive, ex-Emerson (Scott $350)
margins large to grazing frameline, tied by manuscript "H", 1857 3c Dull red tied by blue "Baltimore Md. Apr 23" datestamp (also just ties carrier), cover addressed to Philadelphia, very fine, the "H" cancel indicates service by either John Hutton or John J. Halton (Scott $350)
