on Cover Sound and Fine used example of the 35c issue 1921 Halifax airmail with 2.75mm spacing and with the "1" of 1921 under the "f" of Halifax, tied to "ST. JOHNS/NFLD/NOV 25 1921" airmail cover to Halifax NS. Only 556 examples of this type setting were printed, making it the scarcest type except for the inverted overprint errors. Only a handful of this particular stamp have been recorded on cover. Slightly reduced at left. Note the two additional markings on the reverse, consisting of "No Such Street in Halifax" and "Letter Carrier Branch". Conservatively valued by Unitrade for a cover without additional markings. 2021 Unitrade
