 The "Lady Bridget Blue-Bell" Collection - 1847 (April 16): Lady McLeod (5 c.)
blue, imperforate, the collection, housed in a special green box, with the finest known used single example, the sole recorded corner marginal example from position 1 on letter, and two further fine covers with one from Port of Spain to San Fernando,
and the other from San Fernando to Port of Spain, therefore displaying the usage of the stamp in both directions. The items described in detail as single lots with all illustrated in "Trinidad - A Philatelic History" by Sir John Marriott,
Michael Medlicott and Reuben A. Ramkissoon. A magnificent collection of the very first British Colonial stamp, albeit for local use only, and the first 'thematic' stamp issued depicting a picture of a Ship - the Paddle Steamer was originally
called "Blue Belle" and was renamed "Lady McLeod" after the wife of the prevoius Governor of Trinidad, Sir Henry George MacLeod, who was superceded by Lord Harris as Governor in 1846. A magnificent and historic opportunity to own
the very finest examples of this extraordinary stamp. Starting Price: TBD (to be determined) (Image 1) (Image 2)
