30c Orange (71). Block of four, original gum, vibrant color as fresh as the day it was printed, each stamp is beautifully centered EXTREMELY FINE. A MAGNIFICENT ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 30-CENT 1861 ISSUE. As this block demonstrates, the 30c 1861 plate left very little space between the stamp subjects. Consequently, perforations usually cut into part of design. This fact is acknowledged in both the Scott Catalogue and Stamp Market Quarterly, and the 30c 1861-68 Issue is one of the few for which which centering standards are adjusted accordingly. This block was originally joined with the superb block of four that was offered in the sale of Zoellner collection. This block was positioned to the left of the Zoellner block. It is possible that the few other 30c 1861 blocks were also part of a larger multiple, but the Zoellner and Whitman blocks have superior centering. Ex Anderson and DuPuy. With 1976, 1992 and 2003 P.F. certificates Robert Siegel Auction Galleries, Jan 2009, Sale 968, Lot 91 |
