EXTREMELY FINE. A VERY RARE ORIGINAL-GUM MULTIPLE OF THE 1859 2-1/2-CENTAVOS OLIVE GREEN.

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. THIS IS THE LARGEST RECORDED MULTIPLE OF THE 1859 2-1/2-CENTAVOS, OF WHICH VERY FEW UNUSED BLOCKS ARE KNOWN. A SPECTACULAR EXHIBITION ITEM AND IMPORTANT ARTIFACT OF CLASSIC COLOMBIAN PHILATELY.
The Bortfeldt handbook (page 18) mentions the existence of unused blocks "up to 25 stamps," referring to this block, which is the only one known of its size.
