15c Brown & Blue, Ty. II,
Center Inverted (119b). Remarkably well-centered, bright colors,
quartered cork cancel leaves large part of vignette cancel-free, sealed
tear at bottom, few light creasesVERY FINE APPEARING EXAMPLE OF THE 15-CENT 1869 PICTORIAL INVERT ERROR. Our census of 1869 Inverts, published in the February 1999 Chronicle and updated with one new example, contains 90 of the 15c Invert, including three unused and 87 used (one in the British Library's Tapling collection and three No. 119c varieties). We estimate that no more than fifteen used copies are sound, including copies with tiny corner creases. A large number -- more than half -- have serious faults or repairs. With purple backstamp. With 1979 P.F. certificate (Image) |
