Lithographed 5 c. brown with the dramatic lithographic transfer flaw 'squeezed CENTAVOS' with just the "S" of "CENTAVOS" showing and base (Blank 5/Vt ½), leaving a 'Dwarf stamp' of only 21 instead of 23 mm in height. Nice fresh colour and full to large margins, lightly cancelled by target. A very fine and extremely rare stamp. Certificate BPA (1992) (Scott 7 var)
Provenance: Count Welczek (43. Corinphila auction 1959)
