Lot 10062 – 1862-68 1s slate-grey, a horizontal strip of three, each neatly cancelled “A10”

1862-68 1s slate-grey, a horizontal strip of three, each neatly cancelled “A10”; the right-hand stamp severed and rejoined, a fine and very rare multiple (SG £2’700+)

Provenance: Peter Jaffé, March 2006

Note: Used stamps are in a bluish shade not unlike the 1869 printing in indigo. However, the cancellation is invariably the Type 3 obliterator, very rare on the later printing
