91 ng 74 image#74, 3c Scarlet, an attractive unused example of this rare trial color, uncommonly well centered, wonderfully fresh, with lovely bright color without any surface rubbing that affects many of these stamps, very fine; 1998 PF certificate. (Image) $7,000.00

92 O 74 image#74, 3c Scarlet, an exceptionally handsome appearing used example of this trial printing rarity, characteristic four stroke pen cancel (internal paper break along the second pen stroke), outstanding centering within very large margins, gloriously intense color and a razor-sharp impression on bright paper, fully intact perforations all around, even still retaining its full original gum, extremely fine despite the break caused by the heavy ink of the pen stroke; very few examples of the Three Cent Scarlet exist, whether mint or used, and despite the disparity in catalog value we believe the used examples are far more elusive than mint copies; the used examples with pen strokes are thought to come from a supply of Three Cent Scarlet stamps obtained by the Washington, D.C. stamp dealer Carl F. Rothfuchs in 1893; clear 1981 PF certificate and a 2006 PF certificate. (Image) $5,000.00

97 O 79 image#79, 3c Rose, "A" grill, used single with typical pastel rose color, lightly cancelled with central target cancel, unusually intact full perforations with a corner perforation crease at top right, otherwise nearly very fine; because the grill was strong and covered the entire stamp it was not long used as it damaged perforations and made separation difficult, this example much better than usually seen; 2006 PF certificate.
