Hi all, been a while since I have posted anything but I read this forum religiously and find it incredibly helpful. I picked up a few covers this weekend at an auction and thought I might post to get some help identifying. One day I will pick up the Chase book and try to plate these.... thanks in advance for your help.
The color on this first one was awesome and different. Possibly rose but I highly doubt the rare plum shade. I placed it next to a brown that I had for color comparison.
Your stamp with the numeral 3 cancel almost certainly is a deep claret color (#11A) . . . hard to be 100 percent certain from scans. It appears to have two lines recut in the upper left triangle. We could plate it from your large image.
