 Sungei Ujong. Malaysian States, Sungei Ujong - 1878-1881 overprint "SUNGEI UJONG" for the 2c, 4c and 8c issues, a retouched master negative on celluloid film painted black.
Note: The Sperati II handbook notes the existence of these overprints, based on an article in the local "Arts et Mémoire" magazine from Aix-les-Bains (Sperati’s place of residence), whose author was Lucette Blanc, a friend of Sperati's daughter,
Yvonne. No material has been confirmed in Sperati I and Sperati II handbooks, so, together with the following two lots, these items are the only proof that Sperati also sought to reproduce these stamps.(Image 1)
