Item Description

CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA vintage facsimiles: TWO booklets, each with six "proofs", purporting to be imitations of CSA #2, when closed the text is on the outside, measure roughly 5" x 7" open, highly unusual offering (apparently inspired by TASCO booklets), some small marks & flaws but very nice, undated, one is from Bassett Stamp Co, the other from R. D. Roberts, they have similar locations in Bay City Michigan and may actually be two incarnations of the same firm, very SCARCE booklets. Quite collectible, VF 

The printer and the date is difficult to ascertain. I found a cover from Bassett from 1939 on line. There is also one from R.D. Roberts from 1941. It is entirely probable that these are the Swiss facsimiles. More research is necessary. 

A pair of these was sold in a collection recently by Keheller. It might be this pair, for all I know.
