1928 International Philatelic Exhibition M/S with central strike of the Exhibition cds of 29OC28 (First Day of Issue) in green ACSC 133MSwb, minor faults, undercatalogued at $625. Underrated: the ACSC states "The green is quite rare". [For decades, the ACSC listed red & green inks only. However, that was an historic error for red & blue, that has been corrected in later editions. Only a small number of examples with the true green ink have been recorded: we have sold several examples for between $800 and $1000. NB: suggestions that the blue ink is an admixture of the red & green inks are nonsense]
