image 1852 3d Red Beaver Imperforate with Major Re-Entry, used with crisp and unobtrusive target cancel in blue-green, showing one of the strongest examples we have seen of the major re-entry occurring in position A-47. The re-entry is present in the form of doubling of a large part of stamp design, plus a strong line across most letters at bottom, etc. A remarkable stamp, with its four huge margins, showing portions of the next stamps at top and right, as well as a short transfer of the frameline at top right. There is a small thin, else an extremely fine stamp. (Image)

image 1858 ½d Rose Queen Victoria, Perforated 11¾, a remarkable looking recreated block of 20, with each stamp cancelled by pen. The block was created by using three very fine and intact stamps (middle of bottom row, these alone catalogue $3,000), to which are attached other stamps with faults, and the rest of the missing areas were created digitally on a plastic overlay. The end result is a very rare large block, almost unseen in the Pence era. Ex Daniel Cantor. Rsv. $3,200. (Image)

image 1859 3d Red Beaver Perforated 11¾ with Major Re-Entry, mint with original gum which is described in the certificate as "slightly disturbed" which probably only refers to the fact that it is previously hinged. The stamp is from plate position 61, pane B and clearly shows the major re-entry in several places (Trimble #3). An extremely rare, and possibly unique stamp with original gum, unpriced in Unitrade, but a fine centered regular stamp would catalogue $30,000. Accompanied by a 2021 Greene Foundation certificate.
