3c Dull Red, Vertical Half
(11c). Right half of vertical strip of four, lightly plated in
pencil as Position 52/62/72/82L3, large margins, canceled by nine neat
penstrokes with the ninth tying the strip on legal-size cover to Medway
Mass., matching "Milton Mass. Aug. 29" ms. pmk., some very minor cover
wearVERY FINE. THE ONLY RECORDED MULTIPLE OF A BISECTED STAMP IN UNITED STATES PHILATELY. A TRULY REMARKABLE COVER PREPAID AT THE DOUBLE 3-CENT DOMESTIC RATE WITH STAMPS PREPARED FOR THE ONE-CENT RATE.
The census of 3c 1851 bisects published by Stanley M. Piller in The Chronicle does not contain this extraordinary cover. In our opinion, the sender cut vertical strips of 3c stamps precisely in half in anticipation of mailing circulars at the 1c rate. However, in this case, the sender used a strip of four to prepay the double 3c rate, and the postmaster at Milton accepted the "four halfs equals two stamps" principle. Given the address, perhaps he was more accomodating.
With 2002 P.F. certificate stating "It is a genuine usage of the bisected stamps, but it is not possible to say what rate the strip is paying." (Image)
