1894, 5¢ chocolate, imperf horizontally (Scott 255c), vertical pair, slightly disturbed o.g. (light natural gum wrinkles as are always found on this issue), impressive pair with selvage at left; a well margined, nicely centered multiple (most that are known are off centered) with ravishing rich color; a true rarity missing from all but the most advanced collections, Very Fine, less than 50 pairs are believed to exist.
