#PR1/125, Newspaper accumulation of about 225 stamps, nearly all of which are used, including one each #PR1-3 (defective as always), plus some other First Issues which may not be legitimately used (one #PR1 with PFC declining opinion as to
whether cancel is contemporary), about 50 of the 1875 Continental printing to the $6.00 value, most of which have more desirable handstamps or brush stroke cancels, several American Bank Note Co. printing (again most with handstamp cancels), and many
of the 1895-97 Bureau Issues, duplication up to about 20 each, but most in more modest quantities of no more than about six, usual mixed condition but above the norm for used newspaper stamps, nearly all with fine or better appearance and as
mentioned most have the more desirable handstamp or brush stroke cancels. |
