 #8, 1c Blue, Ty. III, position 99R2, a gorgeous
used example of this highly sought-after classic rarity, possessing mostly
large to huge margins (just touching at bottom right), including a sizable
portion of a sheet margin at bottom, which allows for the distinctive Ty.

blue color and a well defined impression, beautifully postmarked by a
desirable red carrier cancel, completely sound but for a tiny and
insignificant surface scuff in the bottom margin mentioned for accuracy
only, still very fine and quite choice; a select used example of the
rare Type III from position 99R2, which produced the finest and most
distinctive example of this type; clear 1978 PF certificate and a 2006
