Confederacy, 10¢ red, Stonewall Jackson essay. Typograph design on wove, clear margins, Fine, an extremely rare "unissued" design with only three to five examples believed to have survived, accompanied by three Taylor creations of this design in colors (flaws). Estimate; $500 - 750.
In 1866-67, one printing of 300 emissions where produced and sold as proofs. The Dietz catalog states that this stamp was the subject of extensive controversy in the late 19th century. A story from the 1870's claimed that an engraver was commissioned by H. Offutt of the Confederate Post Office to prepare a stamp with the portrait of General Jackson, and was never paid for his work. Offutt denied all claims to this story. Est. $500-750 (Image)
