Description

Mauritius – 1847 “Post Office” 2d, two beautiful essays on cardboard, one in a deep blue colour on a large paper without annotations on reverse, the other shows a weaker imprint bottom right with some partially erased notes on reverse, incl. “essai 5”, the essay shows the thin horizontal line in the lower right corner ornament (dating to 1912 and a feature of the later reprints), which Sperati appears to have been unaware of.
