1920, 2¢ deep rose, type Ia, imperf. Wavy line machine cancel, margins large showing the Schermack type III perfs at left and well clear at right showing the complete design (extremely rare as such), intense deep rose color on bright paper; small corner crease in margin at bottom left, otherwise Very Fine, with 2011 A.P.S. certificate. Scott No. 482A; $65,000.
A HANDSOME AND DESIRABLE FULL MARGIN EXAMPLE OF THE 1920 2¢ TYPE IA IMPERFORATE WITH SCHERMACK TYPE III PRIVATE PERFORATIONS.
Scott 482A was issued imperforate by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing and sold to the Schermack Company for use in its patented stamp-affixing machines. The Schermack "Sealer and Stamper" machine typically applied stamps one at a time, and, in most cases, the hyphen-hole perfs on one side would be cut off as a result of the cutting blade not aligning with the space between stamps. The release of imperforate sheets printed from the experimental Type Ia plates escaped the notice of contemporary collectors, resulting in a very small survival rate. Scott $65,000 (Image)

1917, 2¢ rose, type I. A.E.F. booklet pane of 30, o.g., never hinged, remarkable centering throughout for this notoriously off-centered pane, rich vibrant color, Extremely Fine and choice, a wonderful example of this booklet pane rarity, it is believed that approximately only twenty examples are in existence, with 1997 P.F. certificate. Scott No. 499f; $29,000.
AN EXCEPTIONAL EXAMPLE OF THE 1917 2¢ A.E.F. BOOKLET PANE - BELIEVED TO BE THE FINEST EXAMPLE IN EXISTENCE.
This pane has been noted to have a slight trace of hinging, contradicting the accompanying P.F. certificate which states it is never hinged. After careful examination, we feel the P.F. certificate is correct in it's "never hinged" opinion. Despite this reflection, this pane sold in the R.A. Siegel #881 sale (09/21/2004) for $30,000 hammer versus a $28,000 catalog value. Scott $29,000 (Image)
