Benjamin Stover to Alexander [surname unknown]
Milford, Delaware
This letter was enclosed in a 5.75” x 3.25” yellow/orange envelope, with a
cancelled three cent stamp affixed sideways in the upper left corner; postmarked
JAN 6, MILFORD, DEL. The postmark is 15/16” in diameter and is stamped partly
off the top of the envelope. The stamp cancellation is moderately faded,
consisting of four concentric circles, the largest is 3/4” in diameter and the
smallest is 3/16” in diameter, it is also slightly distorted. Both the postmark and
the cancellation are black ink. The postmark and cancellation are black ink and
did not stamp completely.
Addressed in black ink to:
Miss Anna Wilcox
Smyrna
Chenango Co
Newyork
The envelope was opened by tearing the right side. Slight foxing, especially at
the edges. There are brown stains of unknown origin on the back. The envelope
is somewhat tattered along the bottom and right upper corner.
Letter 44: three pages.
Letter 45: one page.
One 9.75” x 15.375”sheet folded to form four 7.625” x 9.75” pages.
�Written in black ink on blue lined stationery paper, page four appears to
have been unlined. Embossed, in the upper left corners of pages one and three, in
the shape of a governmental building framed with filigree. The legend above the
building is too faint to discern, there may be another legend below the building.
Ink appears unfaded. Moderate foxing, especially along the edges and center
vertical crease. Watermarked with thirteen horizontal lines. Ink slightly faded.
There are small (<1/8”) holes where the five vertical creases cross the single
horizontal crease. Folded size is 5” x 3”. There are six creases: five vertical and
one horizontal.
