367 ng image1918, ($2.00) Ty. A Surcharge on (50c) Violet on Bright Blue, -1/3bbl., No. REA99a, Beer (REA140a). Priester Ty. 163 surcharge (without additional Ty. 95 surcharge), unused (no gum), large margins incl. top sheet margin with plate markers, beautiful bright fresh colors and completely sound

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. CERTAINLY ONE OF THE FINEST EXAMPLES OF THIS RARE 1918 PROVISIONAL SURCHARGE ISSUE. PRIESTER CENSUS REPORTS ONLY FIVE KNOWN.

The "Revenue Act of 1918" provisional surcharge (Priester Ty. 163) was applied to the One-Third Barrel value of the 1909 design type (with and without earlier provisional surcharges, REA123 and REA99, respectively) and, in this case, to the 1902 design type with printed 1914 surcharge (and, in the case of REA141, with the additional "Act of 1917" surcharge).

The Scott Catalogue lists this surcharge/stamp combination without the additional 1917 surcharge as an "a" listing of REA140, mirroring the REA99/99a listings. However, as this lot and following lot prove, the two stamps, REA140a and REA141, were originally joined together as a pair. In our opinion, it would make more sense to list REA140a as an entirely separate major listing, such as REA141A.

The Priester census reports only five examples of REA140a and two of REA141, all with Ty. 163 surcharge. (Image)

Priester Ty. 95 and 163 surcharges, unused (no gum), large margins incl. top sheet margin with "Third Barrel" barrel size inscription, beautiful bright fresh colors and completely sound

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. CERTAINLY ONE OF THE FINEST EXAMPLES OF THIS RARE 1918 PROVISIONAL SURCHARGE ISSUE. PRIESTER CENSUS REPORTS ONLY TWO KNOWN FOR REA141.

The "Revenue Act of 1918" provisional surcharge (Priester Ty. 163) was applied to the One-Third Barrel value of the 1909 design type (with and without earlier provisional surcharges, REA123 and REA99, respectively) and, in this case, to the 1902 design type with printed 1914 surcharge (and, in the case of REA141, with the additional "Act of 1917" surcharge).

The Scott Catalogue lists this surcharge/stamp combination without the additional 1917 surcharge as an "a" listing of REA140, mirroring the REA99/99a listings. However, as this lot and previous lot prove, the two stamps, REA140a and REA141, were originally joined together as a pair.

The Priester census reports only five examples of REA140a and two of REA141. (Image)
