597 nhbl Image50c Trans-Pacific, Air Post (C22). Mint N.H. wide top plate no. F21625 block of six, vivid color, choice centering, minor natural gum bends

EXTREMELY FINE. AN INCREDIBLY RARE CENTERED MINT NEVER-HINGED WIDE TOP PLATE BLOCK OF THE 50-CENT CLIPPER ISSUE.

Advanced collectors of U.S. plate blocks understand that this issue is far rarer as a wide top Mint N.H. plate block than even the $2.60 Graf Zeppelin. A Power Search review found only one other example and it does not match the centering of the block offered here. The Scott Catalogue notes "wide full selvage top margin plate blocks of No. C22 are extremely scarce and sell for $1,750.00 or more" (versus $90.00 price for regular plate block).
