That cancel can only increase the value of that stamp. I like it.

I just really like how it has that pale ghost appearance (faded or under-inked)
And how the cancellation hit in the perfect way making it seem as though
It's has a eye that stares back
I find it enchanting
If it does have something more appealing and possibly uncommon
Makes her that much more beautiful

Are these Penny Red's common? I know nothing but want to learn something, lol! Thanks #128591; Share with me all that you know. Not because I am lazy but because I don't understand how to really tell from the internet. Please help!

The postmark on the AF stamp is the right side of a London East Central duplex.

Dubus type 8 - rated common.

Had a look at my London material and found this cover.

Not the same number but from the same series by the looks.
