EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE HYBRID PANE OF TEN OF THE 1863 ONE-CENT BLACK NUMERAL ON GRAYISH, WITH COLUMNS FROM PLATES 4-A AND 4-B.
This hybrid pane nicely demonstrates some of the typographical changes between Plates 4-A and 4-B. Westerberg briefly discusses this in his book on page 51. He surmises that the typographical changes between Plates 4-A and 4-B did not all occur at the same time and consequently a third plate is possible showing types from both plates. He called this Plate 4-AB. This example, which he references from the Tows collection, proves his theory, as it shows the normal full Plate 4 layout with Type I in the left column and Type II in the right column. If it had been cut from a sheet with impressions of adjacent complete Plates 4-A and 4-B, taking one column from each, it would show Type I in the right column and Type II in the left column.
Of the seven Scott 15 panes recorded in the Westerberg census (1970), only two are hybrids.

EXTREMELY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE USE OF THE SAN FRANCISCO DATESTAMP TO CANCEL THE 1863 ONE-CENT NUMERAL ON GRAYISH PAPER.
The 1c Numeral was intended for and typically used on local or inter-island mail. The presence of the San Francisco datestamp on this example indicates it was used to make up part of the Hawaiian 5c rate.
