Item Description

Interesting Andover, Mass., to Leavenworth, Kansas, cover featuring an 1883-issued 2-cent red brown banknote with a bold reversed 10 within a squared block cancellation. The cover is stamped in the lower left with a "2" as in postage due on delivery, which was accommodated by the two light claret 1-cent postage due stamps. The Andover CDS is dated NOV 3 with a faint MASS along the lower cancel, but the reverse Leavenworth receiving postmark indicates the cover reached the Kansas city Nov. ?? 10 PM.

The stamps are mostly sound with minor edgewear on the lower postage due and well adhered to this tidy 19th Century cover. Please study the images for clarity, color, condition, cancel, and centering.
