Uruguay – 1856 “Diligencia” 60c and 1859 100c sun “thin figures”, four glass support clichés, including one 60c. mirror image, in a very vibrant indigo, and a cliché in gray-black with a few notes in the margin, also the 1859 sun issue 60c reverse image glass cliché in gray-black with notes at base that pertain to exposure time, and a 100c reversed image exposure on gray celluloid. A very fine and tidy group of the first two iconic issues of Uruguay; we know well that the splendid design of the “Diligencia” stamp was of very special significance to Sperati, who produced it on the order of an important client, Robert Hoffmann, and incorporated it at the centre of his famous circular “Philatelie d’Art” logo.
