#UX5, VF, with XF
magenta HARMONY, OWEN CO., KY. JAN 24 1881 postmark (unlisted
in Doane-Thompson) and an exquisitely
detailed strike of magenta Roman soldiers profile killer (Whitfield
92). Provided with the card scan is a detailed scan of the
actual image plus two
digitally enhanced scans (Postmark
Reveal)
revealing the killer's full detail.
In addition, a detail scan of the finest known example of this
rare commercial rubber killer (ex-Beane) struck in violet ink, a
more readable ink color apparently used for later examples. The
offered item is the third
and ERU example of which I am aware, all from same
correspondence. |

#UX7, BOONVILLE,
IN APR 2 1884 postmark apparently
duplexed to an XF
hand-carved, almost ellipse-like grid with central time-of-day
"7PM".

incredible killer. Eight time-of-day killers besides this are
known, not all cataloged. This
unique Boonville killer is newly discovered and first time
offered.
