<strong>Colombia</strong> 1863 Sixth Issue This issue was printed in 1863, and not in 1864 as erroneously recorded in philatelic catalogues. Some of the large multiples offered in this sale for the 5 c. value helped prove conclusively, for the first time, the arrangement of the sheet composition for this value. The Block of Three Including Sideways Position 1705 « 1863, 5 c. orange, the astonishing block of three showing upper adhesive printed sideways, positioned at second to the right in the top horizontal row of the sheet, bottom stamps from type II, vivid and radiant color, mostly large margins, just cut into in small place at base of bottom right adhesive. Two gum creases of no importance. One of only four multiples from the upper sheet setting including sideways position that are in existence, this being the sole second largest recorded, which also made the sheet reconstruction possible. One of the most important key items of <strong>Colombia</strong>n philately. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 30; Yv 23. Ex Larsen. 1706 � 1863, 5 c. orange, type I, a selection of 8 used copies with different cancellations and shades, including Antioquia red handstamp. Some with slight faults. Scott 30; Yv 23.

Ex Londoño and Sánchez Vega. 1710 � 1863, 5 c. orange, type I & II, a well margined pair, vivid color, with complete “La Plata” manuscript cancel. Negligible horizontal crease before use.
