EXTREMELY FINE. A REMARKABLE MULTIPLE CONTAINING TYPES IIIa AND Ic, WHICH IS ALMOST COMPLETELY IMPERFORATE BETWEEN THE LEFT TWO STAMPS.
This strip is referred to as "imperforate between" in the Neinken book (p. 283), however, it is not the true Scott 22b variety. One fully imperforate-between pair of Type IIIa is recorded (Scott 22b) and offered in the following lot. A pair with blind perforations was offered in our 1968 Rarities sale, and the Scott Catalogue makes note of the existence of "numerous pairs" with blind perforations. One imperforate-between pair of Type III (Scott 21a) is contained in a strip of three (Positions 52-54L4) and was sold by our firm in the Lake Shore sale (Sale 888, lot 43).
