FINE-VERY FINE. A RARE COMPLETE 49c BOOKLET OF THE 2c TYPE IV WITH SPECIMEN OVERPRINT, WITH ONE PANE FROM THE PREMIUM POSITION M.
Early U.S. booklets are occasionally encountered with panes from different positions on the plate. This example with a single pane of Position M (evidence of the horizontal guide line at top can be easily seen from the side of the booklet without bending back the covers) should be considered very desirable.
VERY FINE APPEARANCE. AN EXTREMELY RARE 97c BOOKLET OF THE 2c TYPE IV WITH SPECIMEN OVERPRINT, FROM THE DESIRABLE POSITION I.
Despite the single missing pane, this booklet should be considered very desirable. We have not encountered a full BK5 or BK5-S and there were none in the Bush, Silverman, Floyd or Hertzka collections. It is estimated that Position I (vertical guide line at left) represents only approximately 1.9% of the printing, making it rarer than the plate no. Position D.
Scott Retail for seven Mint N.H. panes, with no premium for the position or the intact covers and interleaving. (Image)
