1845, 60r black, greyish paper, worn impression, type II, a marvelous vertical block of 30 (3x10) from the lower right of the sheet displaying a great part of the marginal rule lines on two sides, very fresh showing strikes of framed "Cidade/De/Nictheroy" handstamps; horizontal light fold in centre between adhesives and small scissors cut at top also clear of the designs, of no significance and in exceptionally fine condition for such a large multiple possessing a very delicate thin paper; one of the largest multiples recorded, and remarkably finer than the larger block of 35 in existence, an impressive and unique exhibition item; cert. Juchert (1999); ex Kuyas. (Image)

1845, 90r black, intermediate impression, type IIa, two well margined examples applied on back of entire letter dated in Rio de Janeiro on 25 July 1850 addressed to Vila do Principe, but apparently posted at Paranaguá, where each stamp was tied by the framed "Paranaguá" handstamp, and presumably red octagonal "Inutilizado" postmark (in transit?), carried at triple overland rate; B. Juchert illustrates this cover on page 73 of his handbook "Ziegenaugen auf Brief" as with unidentified postmarks -the correct shape and size of the black handstamp and the accent on the last "A" does not make us doubt about the origin of the cancellation as from Paranaguá, which is also supported by the fact that the very few other items known bearing this handstamp on "Inclinados" are addressed to the same João Manuel da Silva Braga in Vila do Principe; one of about ten covers recorded with two examples of the 90 réis, being even remarkably scarcer with the type IIa (mostly found in these covers with types I & II); the letters bearing the "Inclinados" issue are considerably scarcer than the "Bull's Eyes" covers.
