1581 « 1861, 1 p. rose lilac, position 2, strong impression and intense shade, large even margins all<br />

Scott 18; Yv 14.<br />

1582 « 1861, 1 p. rose lilac, position 4, showing incomplete frame line at bottom left. Tiny surface scuff<br />

at bottom, still attractive and rare. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 18; Yv 14. Ex Caspary.<br />

1583 « 1861, 1 p. rose lilac, position 8, fresh precise impression, huge margins on three sides, large at<br />

right. Natural paper imperfection in second “R” of “Correos”, of no significance. A splendid<br />

copy. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 18; Yv 14.<br />

1584 « 1861, 1 p. rose lilac, position 33, good even margins all around, strong impression, showing<br />

incomplete frame line at bottom right. Paper hinge adherence, of little importance. A rare mint<br />

stamp. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 18; Yv 14.<br />

1585 («) 1861, 1 p. rose lilac, position 36, a large margined copy showing extremely fresh impression.<br />

Very fine. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 18; Yv 14.<br />

1586 « 1861, 1 p. rose lilac, a striking vertical pair, very fresh in delicate shade, wide to huge margins.<br />

Minute tear as a consequence of thin spot and hardly noticeable horizontal crease, both affecting<br />

the upper stamp. Only five pairs of this value are in existence, of which only two are vertical<br />

multiples. A very desirable showpiece of this fascinating issue. Very fine. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott<br />

18; Yv 14.<br />
