3c Rose, Ty. I (25).
Block of four, fresh color and rather well-centered for this tightly-spaced
plate, neat town datestamp, extra wide perforated margin at right showing
full spacing between stamps and parts of the adjoining designs (some
blunted perfs along this side), bottom left stamp minor thin spotVERY FINE FOR THIS EXTREMELY RARE USED MULTIPLE OF THE PERFORATED 3-CENT TYPE I 1857 ISSUE. Until Toppan Carpenter made new 3c plates with wider spaces between stamps to accommodate the perforations, they simply perforated sheets printed from the earlier Type I plates, beginning in early 1857. As this rare used block demonstrates, the narrow (and irregular) spacing was not well-suited for applying perforations. With 2006 P.F. certificate (Image) |
