10c Brown, Without Secret Mark (Scott 187). Block of four, original gum, h.r., top left stamp has a tiny trace of secret mark but probably not enough to qualify as a combination, bright color, few small perf separations sensibly reinforced FINE-VERY FINE. A RARE ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 10-CENT 1879 AMERICAN BANK NOTE COMPANY ISSUE, WITHOUT SECRET MARK. Brookman notes that “blocks of the Type I are extremely rare”.
