SOLD SOLD SOLD SOLD - Cuba 1899 - Sc 222 - (EDIFIL US Admin. 24) Two singles on cover to NY
The U.S. Administration 2c surcharge on 2c red stamp on very nice pre-printed address cover to Lasker & Bernstein, NY. Printed corner card of R. TELLEZ & Co. - APARTADO 90 - HABANA. Stamps cancelled with a HAVANA - CUBA - 13 JUN 99 duplex cds. Very nice R. TELLEZ & Co. - NEW YORK - HAVANA private cds applied on back. Backstamped on arrival at New York. Cleanly opened at the top margin. Regardless of the fact that the catalogue value for the 2c and 2½ stamps on cover is basically the same, in our experience, the 2c on cover is at least 3 to 4 times scarcer than the 2½ c value on cover. Very nice overall
