Revenues: Wine thru Beer
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
632   Image$40.00 Yellow Green, Wine (RE107B). Serial no. 20661, violet handstamp cancel and a few staple holes as usual, repaired at bottom left with a portion of the corner added, lacquer stain at top

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. AN EXTREMELY RARE EXAMPLE OF THE $40.00 WINE WITH FULL TABLET. VERY FEW ARE KNOWN.

The high-denomination wine stamps came into use when the law was changed, allowing revenue stamps to be affixed to the case rather than each individual bottle. They were issued in booklet form, perforated only at left. The first series (Scott RE56-RE59) was used prior to Prohibition and on religious and medicinal wine during Prohibition. They were reprinted in 1934 after Prohibition (Scott RE107A-RE107D). These reprints are considerably scarcer than their earlier counterparts. Perhaps a dozen or so are known of this denomination, and virtually all have faults. This is only the second example we have offered since keeping computerized records (the other is the ex Tolman and Scarsdale copy). (Image)
