White, The Hatter, New York, 1c Blue (EP178). Intact mica with only very slight lamination along edge, stamp with some trivial wrinkling as are all known examples

VERY FINE. AN EXCEEDINGLY RARE EXAMPLE OF THE ONE-CENT "WHITE, THE HATTER" ENCASED POSTAGE ISSUE. VERY FEW ARE KNOWN. ONE OF THE GREAT RARITIES OF ENCASED POSTAGE COLLECTING.

George H. White sold hats and furs from a store on the ground floor below P.T. Barnum's museum. This is the first we have offered since keeping computerized records.

With 2010 P.F. certificate as completely sound.
