2075 nh image1914-19, First Peking printing, $2 black and blue, center inverted (Chan 245a. Scott 237a), a stunning example from the top right corner of the sheet with complete selvedge on two sides, deep bright colors, characteristically centered to lower left within large margins, unused with full original gum, stamp never hinged, hinged in margin only. Extremely Fine. Of peerless quality, and one of the most notable and desirable examples of this rare variety.
