(96,114) 1869 3c ultramarine Pictorial, two singles, and 1868 10c
green Washington F Grill tied by unusual black Maltese Cross
cancels with faint “Hartford, Ct. Apr. 26” (1870) cds at left, on
cover with printed address to Copenhagen, Denmark. Manuscript
directive “Via N. German Union” at lower left, red “2½” credit
handstamp at lower right alongside GNU red framed Bremen transit
datestamp and framed “Weiterfr. 1 Sgr.” handstamp. Cover reverse
has red “New York Paid All Direct Apr. 30” cds and Copenhagen May
15 receiving backstamps.
The 16c franking overpaid the proper 13c prepaid NGU rate to Denmark (effective June 1868 to July 1870), likely reflecting confusion between the 13c prepaid and 16c unpaid rates as listed in the U.S. Postal Guide.
Small nick at the top edge of the cover and the 10c affected at right from edge placement, but still very fine appearing and scarce mixed-issue franking to Denmark, with the F Grill and 1869 Pictorial series appearing together on a correctly routed NGU cover.
