Chris How much should these stamps actually bring? Obviously we can't see plate numbers on the eBay scan, but CVs for a single 1d black on cover start at around £200. But this was something in a league of its own. It went for £1,131.55. The bidding history makes interesting reading. The whole story of this find should make a good magazine or newspaper article. BTW 4d sounds a bit expensive for what looks like an ordinary letter to Dublin. Can anyone confirm this was the correct rate (presumably from England -- I don't have the expertise to make anything of the rubber stamp on the back)? Chris

Obviously we can't see plate numbers on the eBay scan, But if you click on the close-up scan of just the stamps you can see that it's a strip: FI/FJ/FK/FL. -- Kaleb S.
