1883, 2¢ red brown, Specialized Exhibit Collection (Scott 210 vars.), take a lowly stamp, look at it a little more closely…and this is the result: a most impressive and tantalizing study of the production and plate flaws on the 2¢ red brown Washington; begins with the stamp on horizontally laid paper and on watermarked paper (a block of four each, the latter a proof per the accompanying 1992 PF certificate), followed by two more pages showing a variety of other watermarks and paper types (most positional blocks); these are followed by another 15 pages of mint, used and on-cover examples of shifted transfers, pre-printing paper folds, smears and voids, double perforations (imprint strip of four, plus overprinted "SAMPLE" single), misperforations, double transfers, position dot, cracked plates, and more; all fully written up and a joy to behold, Very Fine as a whole, a must-have for the Bank Note specialist.
