Special Selection |
1 | Scott #7-13, perforate Liberty Heads, plate 2, 2nd printing, plated and placed in stock sheet pockets numbered 1 to 50 corresponding to the plate positions. Stamps are mostly used in good to fine condition: eighteen copies of the 1c, twenty of the 2c, sixteen of the 3c, twenty-five of the 5c, twenty-nine of the 7c, and eight of the 20c. A few may be misplated and the plating information should be checked. About 116 stamps with a Catalogue Value of about $290.00 | $45.00 | No Bids |
2 | #38, 39, and 43, 1896 Palm Tree issues, plate proof singles 1c, 2c, and 20c, plus mint singles 1c imperforate horizontally and 1c imperforate vertically. Hinged to album page. | 10.00 | $16.00 |
3 | #46-51, Mint, plus imperforate plate proof pairs of the 1c, 2c, 3c, 5c, and 20c values (in color of issue), plus eleven color trial singles in various colors, all hinged to album pages. 25 items in all. | 12.00 | 13.00 |
4 | #82-95, Centenary issue. (Note: Lithographed frames printed from two separate plates. Plate A frames have a small color scratch across the frame lines below the ME of the right CENTIMES. Plate B frames do not have this flaw. Plate A printings are judged to be the official printings. Plate B frames are judged to be unofficial reprints.) This lot has some Plate A and some Plate B values. Seven album pages: (1) an album page with mint singles - portraits are lithographed which marks them as forgeries except the 10c and 50c values. The 10c is Plate B (a reprint). The 50c is genuine; (2) an album page with a set of imperforate singles, these are all Plate B (reprints); (3) an album page missing portraits - all Plate B (reprints); (4) an album page with inverted portraits - all Plate B; (5) an album page with large POST PAYE overprints, most have areas of color flaws obscured. The 7c is genuine, but the overprint looks forged; (6) an album page with small overprint, the 2c is a genuine Plate A example, others are Plate B or not determined; (7) an album page with two upper right pairs with sheet control numbers - these are genuine postal issues. The 5 centime pair is from Plate A. The 2 centimes pair has the "mustache" flaw in the portrait and is the 2c Plate A shade. Color differences are noted especially between Plates A and B printing of 2c and 7c.        | 5.00 | 24.00 |
