Boyd's Brooklyn City Express Post, Sep. 17 3 O'C. Clear strike of red oval datestamp on folded letter datelined "Philadelphia, Sep. 17th, 1844" to Brooklyn and delivered by Boyd's, red sans-serif "PAID" straightline handstamp unlike any marking used by Boyd's but identical to the American Letter Mail Co. "Paid" used by their Philadelphia office in this period -- therefore, this is a conjunctive use carried by American Letter Mail in Philadelphia to Boyd's in Brooklyn, at a very early stage of the latter's service in Brooklyn, Very Fine, only a few ALMCo./Boyd's conjunctive covers are known to us
