970		PR97	#PR97, 36c Pink, strong color in the distinctive Bureau Issue shade, centered to the right, full o.g., small thin spot and a couple really minor natural gum creases, fine appearance; the immense rarity of this stamp can be evidenced by the fact that our firm has offered several major newspaper collections in recent years, all of which contained many impressive rarities, however not a single one of them (including Weisman, "Pell-Mel", Lyons, Lessin and Ballman) included an example of #PR97; 2002 PF certificate.
