Los 2789
Essays by Riester of Paris, the set of four depicting two sphinxes, eagle, star and crescent; with full ornamentation at top in brown, blue (slight crease), green and red (Nile Post E21 = $ 500). It is interesting to note that these Essays are always attributed to the first issue, however the size of the rectangular design is exactly the same as that utilised by the second, 1867 issue.
