EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. ONE OF TWO RECORDED EXAMPLES OF THE 1933 ONE-HOGSHEAD IN BLACK, SCOTT REA158. ONE OF THE RAREST OF ALL REVENUE STAMPS.
The 1933 One-Hogshead Black is known without overprint (REA158, offered here) and with overprint (REA168, offered in lot 664).

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. THIS IS THE FINER OF THE TWO RECORDED EXAMPLES OF THE QUARTER-BARREL 1933 SURCHARGE ISSUE WITH TYPE A SURCHARGE.
Only two examples of this type are recorded in the Priester census. The other was offered in our 2006 sale of the Tolman collection and is seriously defective.

FINE APPEARANCE. THIS IS ONE OF ONLY TWO RECORDED EXAMPLES OF THE TYPE A SURCHARGE. IT IS ALSO THE EARLIEST REPORTED USE OF ANY STAMP FROM THE 1933 SURCHARGE SERIES WITH THE TYPE A SURCHARGE. A GREAT RARITY.
The other recorded example was offered in our 2006 Tolman sale, but it has a different type of surcharge which is unlisted in Priester.

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE EXAMPLE OF THE HALF-BARREL 1933 SURCHARGE ISSUE WITH MANUSCRIPT SURCHARGE. ONLY THREE ARE RECORDED IN THE PRIESTER CENSUS.
This is the first we have offered since keeping computerized records.

EXTREMELY FINE. THIS IS ONE OF VERY FEW RECORDED EXAMPLES OF THE 1933 ONE-HOGSHEAD IN BLACK WITH BUREAU SURCHARGE, SCOTT REA168. ONE OF THE RAREST OF ALL REVENUE STAMPS.
The Priester census records only one example, which is likely the one offered in our 2006 Tolman sale. The example offered in our "Scarsdale" sale was likely unknown to the authors. Eric Jackson is aware of two additional copies.

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE AND DESIRABLE EXAMPLE OF THE 5-BARREL BLACK 1933 ISSUE WITH THE TYPE B SURCHARGE.
The Priester (and therefore Scott) listing for this issue can be a little confusing. Priester lists the 5bbl. and 25bbl. three ways, with and without the Type 220 surcharge: 1) with cut-out center, no Priester number, no price and no census listing, 2) Uncut, Priester No. 197ca, no price and no census listing, and 3) Center cut-out only, Priester No. 197cb, one recorded. The last listing suggests it would just be the center cutout with a part of the surcharge, which is how the 25bbl. is known (see Siegel Sale 1067, lot 666), and one in such a state does indeed exist. The stamp offered here, with cut-out center, would appear to be the first listing and therefore unknown to Priester. However, it is not unique, as several others have reached the market over the past decade or so.
