Lot Sym. Lot Description  
238 og Image3c Rose, A. Grill (79). Large part original gum, small h.r., clear grill points, far better perforations than normally seen on this issue but with few irregular at top, typical light gum soaks in grill, small corner crease at top left, otherwise Fine, this grilled issue, with the grill covering the entire stamp, is difficult to find with such even perfs, and for some reason this issue almost always is found off-center (Image)

240 ogbl Image3c Rose, C. Grill (83). Block of four with selvage at left with full "NATIONAL BANK NOTE CO. NEW YORK" imprint, original gum, small h.r. at top

FINE-VERY FINE. A STUNNING ORIGINAL-GUM IMPRINT BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 1867 3-CENT C GRILL. VERY FEW BLOCKS OF THIS ISSUE REMAIN INTACT, AND THIS IS ONE OF TWO WE ARE AWARE OF WITH THE IMPRINT.

The other block with imprint (at top) is ex Caspary, Bechtel and Zoellner. When it was offered in the 1956 Caspary sale it was described as "probably unique", indicating that philatelists 56 years ago were unaware of the existence of the block offered here. No plate number blocks of this issue are known.
