(SG O18; Scott O14). Part original gum (due to prior hinging), imperforate along vertical sides with vertical line of perforations just into design at right, incredibly deep rich color, accompanying certificate mentions horizontal creasing which we do not detect but there is a small blemish on Victoria’s crown
VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A HANDSOME EXAMPLE OF THE 1866 8-ANNA “SERVICE POSTAGE” OFFICIAL OVERPRINT.
Ex Chapin. Signed Bloch. With 1978 P.F. certificate. Scott $5,000
