1847 (16 April) "Lady McLeod"
The steamship "Lady McLeod" plied between Port of Spain and San Fernando carrying passengers, freight and mail.
In April 1847 the owner, David Bryce, made a stamp available so that those who wished to send letters were able to prepay the charge for carrying them on board his ship.
unused (5c.) blue with good margins all round, superb colour, unused with part original gum; small patch of browned gum at right which in no way detracts from superb appearance. An extremely rare stamp particularly in such fine condition. R.P.S. Certificate (1961). S.G. 1, £13,000. Photo
