Lot 10330 – 1877, « White Beard » group of 31 imperforate proofs

1877, « White Beard » – Proofs: group of 31 imperforate proofs with all denominations except for the 80r, including 10r with overprint « Specimen », 200r in four imperforate colour proofs with huge margins probably originating from a single die and cancelled by pen strokes (one with Fevereiro certificate), 700r in block of four, etc; some examples with faults. A very rare assembly, with the « Barba Branca » proofs being scarcer than the « Barba Preta » ones.
