Item Description
6/23/1899 Hawaii Honolulu pair #81 cover scarce blue CDS. Baldwin Lowrie Spreckelsville Maui. Spreckelsville, Wailuku District named for Claus Spreckels, the "Sugar King" of Hawaii 1883-1900. Postmasters: George C. Williams (1884-1887), Hugh Morrison (1888-1890), W. Barclay (1890), H. Morrison (1890-1891), H. Center (1891-1894), D. Center (1894-1896), G. M. Boote (1897-1898) and W. J. Lowrie (1899-1900). Located on the isthmus and site of the major Spreckels sugar operation on Maui. Mail service was mostly by the Kahului Railroad, which passed through Spreckelsville which was founded in 1878 as a company town by German-American businessman Claus Spreckels, who later founded the Spreckels Sugar Company. Spreckels already ran the most successful sugar refinery in California. He arrived in Maui in 1876 after the passage of the Reciprocity Treaty of 1875, which gave freer access to market for sugar exported to the United States. Spreckels initially opposed the treaty.Due to the sometimes fragile nature of the vintage and antique items that I sell; special attention is always given to packing to ensure that your purchases arrive undamaged.
