12c Adriatic 1869 Pictorial Issue, Essays & Proofs (Scott 117-E, 117P) continued...
Lot Sym. Lot Description  
1733 E Image12c Typographed Small Numeral, Die Essays, Stamp Size (117-E3). Substantial assemblage of 19 stamp size essays, wonderful range of colors and paper types with very little duplication -- even where there is some duplication the shades vary, at least one with grill, some typical small flaws to be found with these fragile papers

A BEAUTIFUL AND EXTREMELY RARE LARGE GROUP OF THE 1869 12-CENT ADRIATIC SMALL NUMERAL TYPOGRAPHED ESSAYS.

We have never before offered a group with this quantity and variety. While the perforated small numeral essays on grilled stamp paper can be found in abundance (117-E2e), each of these typographed essays are rare.

Three P.F. certificates accompany (Image)
