C36 GB QV 1854 1d PL 198 SG17-C1(1) CI GU YELLOW ILMINSTER TOWN PMK! CAT£3500

Good used. Extremely rare partial yellow circular cancellation of Ilminster on the left side of the stamp. This stamp must have been posted from nearby Chippenham (191 cancel) to Ilminster where it received the yellow town postmark on receipt. All recorded examples have the combination of an 1844 postmark with the Ilminster yellow town postmark. Some creasing and a little toning at the bottom of the stamp are the only hidden faults.
