642 EDU 524 image#524, $5.00 Deep green and black, fresh single with fine centering, tied to neat small-size registered cover to Denmark by Saint Paul, Minn. registry oval, March 20, 1920 earliest documented usage with registry c.d.s. of that date of Saint Paul on the reverse, additional New York transits and backstamped Copenhagen, cover very slightly reduced at left, very fine and choice; while this cover is overpaid and sent for philatelic purposes this issue is exceptionally difficult to find on any cover, but even more so on an attractive collectable cover, most of these high denomination stamps were used on parcels that were not saved or on parcel tags of a more undesirable nature, only occasionally is it found on a flight cover with other stamps long after issuance, this is an extraordinary small single franking cover for the earliest documented usage and a lovely addition for the most advanced Washington-Franklin or earliest documented usage collection; 2004 APS certificate; ex-"Alpha".

1919 COIL WASTE
Lot Symbol CatNo. Lot Description CV or Estimate
657 EDU 538a, 540a image#538a, 540a, 1c Green and 2c Carmine rose, vertical pair, imperforate horizontally, two pairs of each in quite well centered blocks of four, the 1c block is a bottom margin block, tied to special delivery cover by portions of Middletown, Pa. duplexes and the "Special Delivery" handstamps, September 5, 1927 earliest documented usage for both stamps, backstamped Detroit, Michigan the next day, very fine and attractive cover; when these coil waste issues were first issued some had no horizontal perforations between the top row and the selvage, because these were popular with collectors an order was made to produce some more of these, this order was misunderstood to mean completely imperforate horizontally, thus this variety came about and was virtually all saved by collectors mint, because they are so scarce used at the time caution must be used in obtaining contemporaneous cancels, covers with either value are very rare and a cover, such as this, with both values in blocks of four being the earliest documented usage is a find indeed; ex-Alpha". (Image) Est. 1,500-2,000

658 og 539 image#539, 2c Carmine rose coil waste, Ty. II, perf. 11x10, a highly desirable example of this rare coil waste stamp, possessing far better centering than typically found, as most have the perforations into the design, this particular copy has the perfs. completely free of the frame lines, in addition it sports outstanding radiant color and a prooflike impression on fresh paper, o.g., very fine; 2006 PF certificate. (Image) $2,850.00

Will close during Public Auction
659 og 539 image#539, 2c Carmine rose coil waste, Ty. II, perf. 11x10, deep color and impression, centered to the top right but actually better centered than often found, o.g., lightly hinged, a fine example of this coil waste rarity; 2000 PF certificate. (Image) $2,850.00

SOLD for $1,600.00
Will close during Public Auction
660 O 539 image#539, 2c Carmine rose coil waste, Ty. II, perf. 11x10, incredibly rare used example of this difficult coil waste stamp, deep luxuriant color and crisp impression, while centered a bit to top this is still better centered than many, as this issue is notoriously poorly centered, cancelled with a portion of a wavy line machine postmark, small repaired pinhole and toned speck in the head, fine; this stamp is greatly underrated in its used condition, to illustrate this point, a perusal of our records show that this is only the second used example of this stamp in any condition that we have ever offered; photocopy of a 1987 PF certificate and a 2006 PF certificate. (Image) $5,250.00

SOLD for $5,250.00
