Local Stamps

Prince's Letter Despatch, Portland, Maine, undenominated black adhesive, margins ample to large on three sides, tied to cover by indistinct circular cancellation, 3c. rose adjacent tied by "Hallowell ME / Mar / 14" c.d.s., to Boston, Massachusetts, the local with trivial horizontal crease at foot well clear of design, the 3c with natural straight-edge, cover with small nick at right and slightly reduced, yet a most attractive usage of this scarce local, one of only about a dozen covers known, this example being unrecorded in the Lyons census (Penny Post, Vol 10, No. 4); with 2022 Philatelic Foundation certificate.
