FREE: 1903 "Ovate" 13 Star Flag Cancel (12 Old Covers)

The listing, 1903 "Ovate" 13 Star Flag Cancel (12 Old Covers) has ended.

I've seen some 13 star flag cancels, but have only come across a few of the "ovate" (oval shaped) flag cancel (see photos 2 - 4).

This type of flag cancel is called "ovate" due to the oval shape of the pattern of stars. There were 2 types of Boston ovate cancels.
