Third London Printing 1862: 1c lemon-yellow, single copy with good to just cut into margins
on printed matter from "VALPARAISO" to "CONCEPCION". The cancellation is unclear but ties the stamp to the letter. A very rare and collectable item despite its shortcomings. There are only a handful entires with this adhesive recorded. Certficate

Later issues 1867: Perforados, "COLUMBUS HEAD", "DIE PROOFS" of all five values including
the Master die, printed in black, stuck to carton. The proofs bear the internal reference numbers 323 and 323 A through 323 C. The 2 c. value also displays a reference 330 and the 323 reference below, as if the 2 c. had been on a separate order and
was linked to the other stamps by a reference underneath. Given that this was issued earlier here is a proof that it was treated differently by the printers. (Image 1)
