A “slow boat to China” in otherwords. It is said that the Globe “would beat her head three times against a billow and thenfall off and sail around it.” This cover arrived in Philadelphia after a long and tedious journeyof almost six months and was carried on the same trip as the Risvold example.

It kind of puzzles me why the letter would be datelined Eastport, Meand have a Boston postmark. Three days elapsed between the writing at Eastport on Oct. 10thand the Boston postmark of Oct. 13th. My guess is that the writer carried it to Boston andmailed it upon arrival, perhaps thinking it could get faster carriage from Boston to Alfred,Me than from Eastport. Anyway, the STEAM is rarely seen on east coast ‘47 covers. TheSTEAM shows the letter was carried by a non-contract coastal steamer from Boston to Alfred.The ship captain collected 2c for doing so. The STEAM postal marking is frequently seen onletters carried on the Hudson River. You have an unusual cover here. (photo) Est. 750-1,000Page 5

March 22-23, 2013 - New York CityTHE SIDNEY W. EMERY COLLECTION OF H.B. SHAW CORRESPONDENCE COVERSOn 27 September, 1972 the United States post office issued a commemorativestamp honoring the centenary of the mail order business, originated byMontgomery Ward. However, seven years prior to that date, in 1865, H.B. Shawwas already in the mail order business, advertising her products in hundreds ofrurall newspapers nation-wide. Besides the usual patent medicines offered at thetime Shaw’s products included British oleaon (Persian plum oil), a hair tonic,Liquid Lightning, a cleaner and stain remover claiming to instantly removegrease, tar, paint, varnish, etc. from almost any kind of fabric, Brazilian MagicLustre, a product claiming to contain diamonds from Brazilian mines, but actuallyjust a cake of brick dust. Unsuspecting souls who ordered a fool proof flyswatter received two blocks of wood, the bargain $1.00 sewing machine turnedout to be a needle, thread and thimble.What was virtually unknown at the time was that H.B. Shaw was actually awoman. The covers came in addressed to “H.B. Shaw” or “Mr. H.B. Shaw” andsometimes “H.B. Shaw, Esquire”, but never “Mrs.” Harriet Shaw was a pioneerin the mail order business, operating from 1865 to 1881. Had it been known toher customers that she was not a man it is highly unlikely that she would have been ableto remain in business for very long. Eventually, though, she was sued for mail fraud anddespite never being convicted she gave up the business. She resided her entire life in thehouse she inherited from her father at 15 South Street in Alfred, Maine, passing away in1933 at the tender age of 91.See lots 522-24, 526 and 528 for collection balances60 ✉ #65, 3c Rose, single with sealed tear at top, tied by numeral “10” in circle and “Olympia,W.
