Item Description

Us: early machine cancels; interesting registry "receipt" card for registered item sent from boston to bradford nh, reverse has _e tobey pm_ handstamp and notes the item was sent to the bradford postmaster, has a very clean example of an early leavitt machine cancel on the face of the card, mailed 1883, some tiny smudges but overall this card is a real fresh example of this machine, made especially scarce by the usage on the registry card, vf

Leavitt machine cancels were introduced in 1876. They seemed to handle cards better than letters, and many early examples of these cards are on postal cards. I myself have never seen one on a registry card before.

I will combine shipping. Just ask.

Please no cash or stamps.
