Private Perforations (343). Vertical strip of four with guide line between bottom stamps, inverted perforations with notches at tops, top and bottom stamps h.r., others Mint N.H., bright color

VERY FINE AND CHOICE. A RARE ORIGINAL-GUM STRIP OF FOUR OF THE ONE-CENT WITH ATTLEBORO PERFORATIONS, WHICH SHOWS THE PERFORATIONS INVERTED. THIS MULTIPLE SHOWING THE GUIDE LINE IS UNIQUE.

The inverted perforations were caused by feeding the stamps into the machine in the wrong direction. This resulted in the notch appearing at the top of the stamps instead of at the bottom. Steven Belasco records eleven stamps in total.

With 1995 P.F. certificate. Scott Retail as two normal pairs (Image)

Perfs show at top and bottom, machine notch at bottom, tied by bold "Attleboro Mass." oval cancel on F. Percy Collingwood (proprieter of Attleboro Stamp Co.) corner card cover to Lorian O., unsealed for circular rate

VERY FINE AND CHOICE. AN EXTREMELY RARE COVER BEARING THE ONE-CENT ATTLEBORO PRIVATE VENDING MACHINE COIL.

In 1909 the Attleboro Stamp Company employed a stamp-affixing machine to apply postage to bulk mailings of its price lists and editions of the Attleboro Philatelist. Although the company served stamp collectors, the Attleboro coil appears to have been a purely utilitarian product, limited in its scope to the basic 1c and 2c stamps necessary for mailing and not intended to create new varieties for collectors. Examples of these coils are scarce to rare, with the pair of Scott 344 priced at $45,000.00 in Scott, among the highest values of all 20th century varieties.

The 1c Attleboro was typically used on wrappers with the printed Attleboro Philatelist corner card. This unsealed envelope is extremely rare.
