VERY FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE FULL CORNER OF THE 2-CENT BROWN ON ORANGE CENTENNIAL SPECIAL PRINTING. A GREAT RARITY IN THE FIELD OF POSTAL STATIONERY COLLECTING.

Reproductions of the Plimpton Manufacturing Company stamped envelope issues were specially made for display at the 1876 Centennial Exposition. They were made from new dies with extreme care and show fine impressions and clearer ink than the regular issues. None are known used. The 2c Die 48 was also used on regular issues but the impressions from this die on Orange paper are exclusively Centennial Special Printings. Only three full entires are recorded.

With 2000 P.F. certificate. (Image)
