Lot Details

Running Fox, Hockanum, Connecticut, on 3c rose, affixed to cover to Watertown, Connecticut, postmarked Hockanum (13 May), cover cleaned, accompanying P.F. certificate noting “genuine usage stamp with large tear”, not impacting the appearance of this desirable fancy cancel, with only eleven on-cover examples of any Hockanum fox-type recorded in the Duffney census, and only five of this “Type I” style, an appealing rarity; with 1988 Philatelic Foundation certificate. (Skinner-Eno PA-D 6)
