Description
1862 (Sept) Typeset 4c black/blue, type 14 WITH INNER FRAME LINES and showing variety "1" for first "I" in BRITISH, from R2/5 of the setting, initialled in white, very fine UNUSED, with complete roulettes. The unique unused example from this position, and in exceptional condition for the issue. A great stamp, ex Lars Amundsen (SGA 12/1967, lot 96) and du Pont (Feldman 27/6/2014, part lot 60103) and signed Houtzamer, with BPA cert (2022). [N.B. Type 14 with inner frame lines should really be regarded as a completely different type from the regular type 14. Of the eight stamps in the setting with the type 14 border, only two (R2/5-6) have these frame lines, whereas the six positions from row 4 all lack them, transforming the overall design.] Cat £11,000, SG 123ba
