Lot Symbol CatNo. Lot Description CV or Estimate
16 O 5A image#5A, 1c Blue, Ty. Ib, position 6R1E, an extraordinarily handsome appearing used example of this very rare stamp, being one of two positions that are considered to show this type the best, possessing exceptionally large and wonderfully well balanced margins which just barely touch at a couple of points and are almost never encountered on this stamp, including a portion of the sheet margin at top, bright early color and a well defined impression which shows the Ty. Ib design characteristics exceptionally well, light red Boston c.d.s. and black "Paid" h.s. of that city, miniscule thin specks at top and light vertical crease, both of which are barely noticeable and do not detract from this stamp's extremely fine and impressive overall appearance; 1986 and 2006 PF certificates.
