1857 1d rose-red on a local Edinburgh cover being neatly tied by a “Brunswick Star” duplex (Arnott) type 1a, though possibly a sub type due to a 4mm gap of rays at 9 o’clock, and a long ray at 3 o’clock, dated for AU 18 63.
We handled a similar strike of this type of “Brunswick Star” some years ago now, being on piece and bearing 4d and 2d issues (see illustration) dated for AU 10 63, ten days earlier than this strike.
