The 1840 issue 1d Mulready envelope, plate A255, used. Addressed to Broadstairs, Kent. Maltese Cross cancellation in black with Ramsgate October 1st 1841 transit/receiver on reverse. Much scarcer in used condition than mint. Faults, including partially missing flap and thinning but still an acceptable example of the world's first pre-paid envelope. 2023 Scott US$525.00=
