 George W. Laird, 3c Black
on Pink Paper, Die Cut (RT15c). Showing clear double transfer of
lettering at center, bright shade, small natural pre-printing paperfold at
bottom right, tiny thin speck at bottom rightVERY FINE APPEARANCE. A
RARE EXAMPLE OF THE GEORGE W. LAIRD 3-CENT DIE CUT ISSUE ON PINK PAPER.
ESPECIALLY RARE WITH THE DOUBLE TRANSFER. ONLY 9 ARE RECORDED -- THIS
DOUBLE TRANSFER MAY WELL BE UNIQUE. The Aldrich book records 9
examples of this issue but does not note how many have a double transfer.
The variety is listed in Scott, but their pricing is inconsistent and needs
to be updated. The normal stamp catalogues $3,000.00, while the rare double
transfer only catalogues $900.00. The Scott Catalogue applies a multiplier
from 10% to 150% for other examples of the variety, such as the 3c die cut
on Pink paper. (Image) |
