Western Express Covers - Wells Fargo to Whitney

Lot 103    

Whiting & Co.'s Feather River Express, printed frank (WHI-002) on 3¢ red (U10) buff Nesbitt entire to Quincy, in conjunction with partial blue "Everts, Wilson & Co.'s Express, Marysville" circular handstamp canceling indicia, Very Fine, an extremely rare conjunctive usage.
Estimate    $500 - 750.

An unusual conjunctive usage because both company's served the same area, according to Nathan "Everts and Whiting were close friends and so Whiting made arrangements to turn over his express business on the Quincy to Marysville part of the route." -- this is most likely an example of that route sharing.

Realized: $375
