2 1/2d Pictorial Perf "T" on cover

With all the fraudulent perforations being offered for sale on ebay it is heartening to see reputable sellers still offering quality genuine items.

Just received after a two month, yes two month, transit from Canada I was pleased to receive this genuine 2 1/2d Pictorial perforated "T" on an official cover.

The perforation is 6 x 5 which is identical to the other 2 1/2d Pictorials perforated "T" in my collection. Cancelled with the Hobart Type 3(ii) cds (with "H" of "Hobart" wider than T3(i)) and dated 7 P 13 JA 04. Gratifying aspect is that the cds ties the stamp to the cover as there is no backstamp.
