Harry it must be great to fill those early spaces..i have a U.S. Scott #90..catalog says $400 but the cancel is so heavy it looks like Washington is peeking through a knot hole..i asked a couple of knowledgeable U.S. collectors what I could expect to get with that heavy a cancel and they both thought in the 15 dollar range..so I put it in my album..at least I can say I have a #90 !! |

CONGRATS !
Thats not all that bad of a #1 for starters !
The first one I ever got wasn't near as good as that one.
I gave it to a buddy after years of finally getting several good copys of it as well as several good #2s.
Time & paitience is the name of the game.
I always figured even a space fillers better than a blank space.
Eventually you're upgrade as well.

A #261, great !
#261 through #263 are out there, most are over priced but can be bought at decent prices.

Yes It does have nice margins though faded,and with It this faded It makes It very hard to make out the #1 color  |
