62 O 21 image#21, 1c Blue, Ty. III, the example offered here is, unquestionably, the finest quality used example of the 1857 One Cent Type III we have ever had the pleasure to offer in our auctions, as every aspect of the stamp is the exact opposite of what is normally encountered on this rare and challenging stamp, boasting absolutely flawless centering amid uncharacteristically large margins, its color is especially deep and its impression incredibly detailed on unusually bright paper, even its perforations are full and intact which is a most uncommon occurrence on any perf. 15 issue, light central strike of a rimless grid cancel, extremely fine; a true condition rarity in this gem condition; 2002 PF certificate for a horizontal pair, this being the right stamp.

65 og 23 image#23, 1c Blue, Ty. IV, an extraordinarily choice example of one of the most difficult 19th century stamps to find in mint condition, possessing fantastic centering, especially considering that the vast majority of examples are noticeably off center, deep intense color and a razor-sharp impression, full original gum that is only lightly hinged, the accompanying certificate mentions faint toning at bottom right which is practically undetectable and unworthy of mention in our opinion, still an extremely fine example which, in our opinion, ranks among the finest known still retaining their original gum; 2002 PF certificate. (Image) 8,500.00

SOLD for $16,000.00
Closing..Mar-07, 12:30 PM
66 O 23 image#23, 1c Blue, Ty.

70 ogbl 25 image#25, 3c Rose, Ty. I, an incredibly rare mint block of four, centered into the design at right illustrating the difficulty encountered in trying to perforate these exceptionally tightly set images, perforated all around but scissors separated at right so that designs are complete, full o.g., lightly hinged, wonderfully fresh and fine for this, being one of the few blocks yet remaining intact; 1994 PF certificate. (Image) 12,500.00

72 ogbl 26 image#26, 3c Dull red, Ty. II, bottom sheet-margin block of twelve with center line at left, quite well centered for this, o.g., h.r. reinforcing some perforations, but three of the best centered stamps are n.h., small faults to the left straight edge pair, otherwise fine-very fine. (Image) 1,200.00+

SOLD for $280.00
Closing..Mar-07, 12:30 PM
73 ogbl 26a image#26a, 3c Dull red, Ty. IIa, top sheet-margin mint block of four, this type is distinguished from the more common Type II by having the side frame lines broken between each design rather than being continuous, vertical multiples are especially useful in showing this type (top and bottom margin examples of normal Type II are frequently mistaken for Type IIa), only two plates were used for these and Carroll Chase considers them to be actually scarcer than the perforated Type I stamps despite the drastically lesser catalog value assigned to this type, o.g., h.r., fine and an exceptionally elusive block. (Image) 1,900.00

SOLD for $1,350.00
Closing..Mar-07, 12:30 PM
74 O 26a image#26a, 3c Dull red, Ty.

75 ogOc #25-26a #25-26, 3c Dull red, Ty. I and II, extensive study of stamps and covers, collection of a total of over 140 stamps including some in various multiples and 120 covers, of these there are nine used singles and two used pairs, plus 35 covers that have perforated Type I stamps printed from the plates that were used for the imperforate issues, there are a few stamps that are Type IIa, though these are difficult to distinguish from top or bottom row Type II stamps, the rest are the normal Type II, among these latter we note mint and unused blocks of four and a mint block of twelve (4x3), majority of the stamps are used singles and pairs collected for their shades, varieties and cancellations, the covers include a wide range of town markings, plus some advertising covers and other better usages, throughout in all of the types plating notations are made where possible, but these are much more difficult to plate than the imperforates, condition is mixed as would be expected in a hoard such as this but there are many fine-very fine items and an excellent collection for the student of this issue. Est. 1,500-2,000

79 O 28A image#28A, 5c Indian red, Ty.
