VERY FINE. A PHENOMENALLY RARE IMPRINT BLOCK OF SIX OF THE 1870 ONE-CENT NATIONAL BANK NOTE COMPANY GRILLED ISSUE. THIS IS THE LARGEST MULTIPLE WE HAVE OFFERED SINCE KEEPING COMPUTERIZED RECORDS.
A Power Search review shows we have offered only two original-gum blocks of four of Scott 134 since keeping computerized records.
Ex Sinkler. With 2002 P.F. certificate. Scott Retail as block of four and pair with no premium for the better position. (Image)

VERY FINE-EXTREMELY FINE ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 1870 2-CENT NATIONAL BANK NOTE COMPANY GRILLED ISSUE, WITH ONE STAMP SHOWING THE SPLIT GRILL VARIETY.
This is a surprisingly difficult block to obtain, especially with such choice centering.

FINE-VERY FINE. THIS IS BY FAR THE FINEST OF THE THREE 1870 6-CENT NATIONAL BANK NOTE COMPANY GRILLED ISSUE BLOCKS WE RECORD, AND THIS IS THE ONLY EXAMPLE WE HAVE OFFERED SINCE KEEPING COMPUTERIZED RECORDS. A REMARKABLE LINCOLN-THEMED MULTIPLE.
After searching for multiples of the 6c 1870 Grill (Scott 137 and 137A), we were surprised that blocks are so rare. None were offered in Caspary, Eno or other major block collections. A review of all 28 Colonel Green sales also failed to find one. Two others were offered in the Walter C. Klein sale (one ex Close and Ainsworth, the other ex Sinkler), but both have perfs impinging on the design. The Brookman book notes one was offered in the 1933 Hind sale, which is described in the sale catalogue as well-centered, but not illustrated -- we assume that block is the one offered here. (Image)

VERY FINE. AN INCREDIBLY BEAUTIFUL AND RARE ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF THE 1870 7-CENT NATIONAL BANK NOTE COMPANY GRILLED ISSUE.
Two blocks of six are known (one ex Klein, other barely shows grill points), as are a very small number of blocks of four. A Power Search review did not find any in our auctions from 1994 onwards, and the first occurrence is the block offered here, from our 1969 Rarities sale. (Image)
EXTREMELY FINE. THE 1870 10-CENT NATIONAL GRILLED ISSUE IS ONE OF THE MOST DIFFICULT OF ALL BANK NOTE ISSUES TO OBTAIN IN THIS REMARKABLY CHOICE QUALITY, ESPECIALLY WITH ORIGINAL GUM.
