Description
Historic 1881 cross-border postal cover mailed from Dunham, Canada, to Joseph S. Morrison, Esq. in Plymouth, New Hampshire. The cover bears a Canada 3¢ Queen Victoria Small Queen stamp, likely Scott #37 type, with a visible DUE marking and an original dated enclosure fragment reading Dunham, Jan. 15th, 1881.
This is a desirable postal-history piece with several strong collecting points:
* Canada 3¢ Queen Victoria Small Queen stamp on cover
* Cross-border Canada-to-New Hampshire use
* Clear connection to Dunham and Plymouth, N.H.
* Visible DUE postal marking, adding interest beyond a standard mailed cover
* Original 1881 enclosure fragment included with the cover
* Addressed to Joseph S. Morrison, Esq., giving it local-history appeal
Condition shows honest age and handling wear, including toning, soiling, edge wear, paper loss/roughness along one side, pencil arithmetic on the reverse, and wear to the stamp and envelope. The cover retains strong postal-history character, with the stamp, due marking, address, and enclosure all contributing to the story of the piece.
