The U.S. 1-cent Franklin - by Don Evans

The 1-cent Franklin 1861-1867 and an Introduction to the Postal History of the Period
By Don. L.Evans with contributions from C.W. Christian
Published by Linns Press

The first comprehensive volume ever devoted to the 1861-67 series, is an important landmark in the literature of classic U.S. stamps. Although the book concentrates on the lowest denomination of the 1861 series, the 1-Cent stamp is found in combination with all other values and was used in every conceivable postal application. This opens the text to a discussion of the complete range of philatelic lore for mid-century America, and results in an encyclopedic introduction to virtually all aspects of the postal history of the 1860s.
