Title:
Lot 147 THE RARE MAGENTA "PAID." OF MORANT BAY (PD11); 21st June 1843 EL (light toning clear of important marks barely detracts) from Morant Bay (fine black c.d.s. across flap) to London with a very fine strike of the rare distinctive "PAID." mark in a clear magenta ink, beside a matching m/s "4" (inland rate); both crossed out (as usual) with a black British "1/-" rate alongside. Very rare. (Foster only recorded 4 examples and a further example was sold by us in 1989 for £700). (Ex Cameron &
