East Highgate Octagon


I usually buy only covers for my postal history collection, but in the case of this example of the octagon from East Highgate, it was such a perfect specimen in the beautiful red (or is it pink?) shade, I made an exception.

This Franklin County post office existed from October 28, 1834 to September 27, 1963 as an independent post office. Then it changed to an independent rural station of Highgate Center from September 28, 1963 to July 29, 1972
