 #39, 90c Blue, an attractive appearing used
single of one of the most difficult of United States stamps to acquire
genuinely used, the stamp offered here has a long history of being

intense color, wonderfully cancelled with central blue grid
postmark, tiny pinhole and expert repair at bottom right adding a small
portion of the margin, nevertheless of very fine appearance and among the
very few certified examples in existence; 1943 RPS and 1988 PSE
certificates, as well as 1988 and 2006 PF certificates.
