;) | A10 used KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent postmark (PML.4) in red ink on 1873 QV 1/- lilac-rose (SG.20, Cat.£350) with tear at base from the mysterious band of use somewhere within the life of the later QV 1/- claret (SG.21) pmk'd red ink PML.4 period NO 28 1875 to DE 28 1876. The 1875 QV 1/- claret (SG.21, in use for approx. 17 months) is pmk’d at Kingstown firstly by black horiz. “A10” (PML.4), secondly by red ST. VINCENT cds, and thirdly by red horiz. “A10” (PML.4). The black PML.4 band stretches from JU 27 1872 (cover) to JU 24 1875 (red village “CH” overstruck black “A10”), the red ST. VINCENT band being JY 10 1875 to NO 9 1875 (covers), and the red PML.4 band being NO 28 1875 to DE 28 1876 (covers) giving way to the first 1/- vermilion (SG.24) cover of FE 28 1877 with continued cancelling by red PML.4. The last two bands might have been extended by loose village pmk’d stamps but when Kingstown switched to the red ink pad the overstriking was abandoned as the GPO did not want red overstruck red. (During the red PML.4 band covers to other BWI islands and the USA are found cancelled by red ST. VINCENT cds). £60 |
