1851-56 Issue (Scott 5-17)
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
311   Image1c Blue, Ty. Ib (5A). Position 6R1E, ample to huge margins, showing complete design characteristics and portions of adjoining stamps at bottom and left, deep rich color, bold New York circular datestamp cancel, completely sound

EXTREMELY FINE. A HUGE AND STUNNING USED EXAMPLE OF THE RARE 1851 ONE-CENT TYPE Ib FROM PLATE ONE EARLY, FROM ONE OF THE TWO POSITIONS THAT FURNISHED THE BEST TYPE Ib EXAMPLES.

Type Ib was produced only as an imperforate stamp from Plate 1 Early. Six positions on Plate 1E furnished stamps qualifying as Type Ib -- Positions 3-6R and 8-9R -- distinguished by the complete design at top and nearly complete design at bottom. When first entered on the plate, these six positions (as well as 7R1E) had the complete design at top and bottom. However, unlike 7R, small portions of the bottoms were burnished away. Positions 6R and 8R had less of the bottom erased than the other Type Ib positions, and for this reason they are more desirable examples of the type. This example, with Jumbo margins and in sound condition is a great rarity.

With 1986 and 1992 P.F. certificates. With 2008 P.S.E. certificate (VF-XF 85 Jumbo; SMQ $20,000.00 as 85, $32,500.00 as 90). (Image)

313   Image1c Blue, Ty. Ia (6). Plate 4, full margins showing much of the key design characteristics, just touching the plumes at bottom, deep Plate 4 color, town cancel, a few minor flaws including small edge thin, tiny tear and corner creases

VERY FINE APPEARING EXAMPLE OF THE 1851 ONE-CENT IMPERFORATE TYPE Ia.

Stamps printed from Plate 4 were issued in April, May and briefly in June 1857 before perforations were introduced. The relatively small number of imperforate Plate 4 stamps issued during this period explains the rarity and desirability of any of the imperforate stamp types produced from this plate (Ia, Ic, II, III and IIIa). The extremely rare Type Ia, showing the full design at bottom, was furnished only by 18 of the 200 subjects on Plate 4 (the remaining two bottom-row positions were sub-type Ic).
