734a |
#734a, 5c Kosciuszko, horizontal pair, imperforate
vertically, a most desirable example of this of this rare error, being
exceptionally well centered which is most uncharacteristic of this,
beautiful fresh color on pristine white paper, o.g., lightly hinged, just a
faint trace of a gum bend, extremely fine; one of the finest pairs
available from the one sheet of 100 that was issued, as most are
centered to the bottom and have heavy gum bends or creases. (Image) |

741b |
#741b, 2c Red National Parks, horizontal pair,
imperforate vertically, a very rare bottom margin plate no. 21259 block
of ten, misperforated at a slight diagonal as are many of these errors,
o.g., n.h., minor gum wrinkle, fine; only two or three error plate
blocks exist; clear 1996 PF certificate; cataloged as four pairs (a
plate block of six catalogs $3,750.00).

807b |
#807b, 3c Deep violet, horizontal pair, imperforate
between, quite fresh, well centered, o.g., lightly hinged, very fine
and choice; a terribly rare and undercataloged Presidential series error,
with only ten pairs recorded according to Datz; the last time this
particular error pair was offered was in our September 2001 sale of the
William Floyd collection, where, after intense bidding, it realized
$2,200.00, despite its modest $900.00 catalog value at the time; 1999 PSE
certificate; ex-Floyd. (Image) |

832a |
#832a, $1.00 Purple and black, vertical pair,
imperforate horizontally, a select mint bottom sheet-margin pair of
this rare error of which only 50 pairs are recorded, particularly
fresh, well centered, o.g., n.h., bottom stamp with typical natural gum
bend, choice very fine; position numbers 89 and 99 marked lightly in pencil
on reverse; clear 1993 PSE certificate; ex-Weisman. (Image) |

1125a |
#1125a, 4c San Martin, horizontal pair, imperforate
between, unusually well centered, as many are found centered to the
left, fresh rich color, o.g., n.h., light pencil notation on gum, very
fine; certainly among the finest examples available of this rarely offered
error, with only 20 pairs reported.

#1137a, 8c Reuter, ocher omitted, horizontal
strip of three, being positions 30-32 from the unique sheet which had a
piece of paper on top during the printing process, affecting only a small
number of stamps on the sheet, with position 30 being the error stamp o.g.,
n.h., very fine; only three such errors exist; photocopy of a 1996
PF certificate for the original sheet before it was broken up. (Image) |

1137b, 1137d |
#1137b, 1137d, 8c Reuter, ultramarine omitted and all
colors omitted, a most remarkable "transition" block of six (3 x 2)
containing single examples of each distinct color omitted error, from the
unique sheet which had a piece of paper on top of the sheet during the
printing process, affecting only a small number of stamps on the sheet,
this block is positions 38-40/46-48, position 46 is the ultramarine omitted
error of which there are only three such errors known from the
sheet, while position 38 is the all colors omitted error, of which
there are only six examples found on the sheet, o.g., n.h., very
fine; an enormously rare and desirable missing colors multiple; cataloged
simply as the two error stamps; 1996 PF certificate for the unique complete
sheet before it was broken up; ex-Floyd.

1150a |
#1150a, 4c Water Conservation, brown orange
omitted, a spectacular bottom margin plate no. 26592 block of ten, with
the right two stamps having the brown orange omitted due to a small piece
of paper having been on top during the printing process, leaving four
stamps with only a partially printed design and the brown orange color
completely omitted, in fact the extra paper is still attached to this
multiple, clearly showing how this error occurred, o.g., n.h., very fine;
this plate block represents two of the four known examples of this
error and is the only one to show the extra paper still attached;
cataloged as two singles. (Image) |
