cover RD and 1841 1d. plate 12, AG-AH pair, used together on large printed Bedfordshire Agricultural Society A.G.M. Notice originally sent to Hallowell(?) House then redirected to Lynn, showing a range of datestamps between 31 May and 3 June 1841, black Maltese Cross cancellations (different types and the 1d. pair presumably applied at first destination point to pay redirection); the adhesives with margins all round (2d. with small surface thin at top-left), the cover with traces of toning but still fine and extremely attractive. A rare franking. Photo | Christie's
