Lot no. 1284

1862, 30 par. blue, in shades from pale to deep, on white wove paper, a complete sheet of 32 subjects, the upper row with a very narrow "setting", thus two stamps with overlapping design, the central two rows in tête-bêche format (eight vertical pairs), some slight spotting but an excellent example of the drying process which left impression of variable colour, a scarce and very appealing sheet with most of the stamps unmounted mint, one hinge in the center of the sheet, otherwise only a few hinges in the margins, ex collection Severin
