VERY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL SET OF PLATE PROOF BOTTOM IMPRINT AND PLATE NUMBER BLOCKS OF TWELVE OF THE 1890 ISSUE. TRULY SPECTACULAR.

This is an excellent alternative to the almost impossible dream of forming a complete set of plate blocks of the issued stamps. These proofs are especially desirable, as they are all from the bottom plate positions. (Image)
