<strong>Colombia</strong> 1408 � 1859, 5 c. deep purple, stone B, bright beautiful color, three huge margins, just touching at part of left margin, used on piece together with 10 c. yellow brown, stone B, outstanding margins, both cancelled in manuscript “Nare Nove./18 de 1859”, being a very early date of use. 5 c. adhesive affected by small insect damage, nevertheless a very rare franking in this scarce purple shade. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 3, 4a; Yv 2A, 4. 1409 « 1859, 5 c. blue, stone B, a most remarkable tête-bêche pair, positions 12-13, bright color, excellent margins, being enormous at base. The inverted positions only occurred in stone B. One of the finest tête-bêche error pairs in existence, of which only seven are recorded, being four horizontal and three vertical pairs. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 2a; Yv 3a. 1410 « 1859, 5 c. blue, stone B, a stunning tête-bêche block of four, including adjoining stamps at base which clearly display, shifted alignment of transfers. Large margins on all sides, except slightly cut into at one place in right margin of one right hand adhesive. Slight traces of original gum on front, of no importance. Large paper adherence on reverse, tiny tear at top left just touching one upper frame and slight crease, however the minor faults do not detract from this rarity. One of only three tête-bêche errors recorded in blocks of four, this being unique displaying the uneven alignment of transfers on adjoining units. A most impressive showpiece. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 2a; Yv 3a. 1411 « 1859, 10 c. chestnut, stone A, deep intense color, large margins all around. Few minute ink marks at bottom left, nevertheless a very scarce shade. Scott 4b; Yv 4a. 1412 « 1859, 10 c. chestnut, stone A, a splendid selection of five copies in different yellow orange shades (3), scarce dull chestnut (one copy, with minute thin) and olive yellow. Very attractive. Scott 4, 4d; Yv 4. 1413 « 1859, 10 c. yellow orange, stone A, positions 1-2, an impressive pair from the top left corner of the sheet, excellent margins and good impression. Faint vertical crease at right and slight gum wrinkles of no importance. A spectacular showpiece. Scott 4a; Yv 4. 1414 « 1859, 10 c. yellow orange, stone A, block of four, positions 31-32 / 42-43, very fresh impression for this stamp, wide margins on all four sides. Two slight creases not apparent on front, usual faults associated with a multiple of this size. Very fine and rare. Cert. Bortfeldt. Scott 4a; Yv 4. 1415 � 1859, 10 c. olive yellow, stone A, wide balanced margins on all sides, cancelled by “La Plata/ Franca” blue oval. A very rare cancellation. Scott 4a; Yv 4. 1416 � 1859, 10 c. deep ochre & light chestnut, stone A, two large margined copies, of which one cancelled by rare “Espinal/Franca” double oval, the other showing part of very rare “Chita/De Oficio” double oval. Tiny thin speck. A very elusive pair of cancellations. Scott 4d; Yv 4. 1417 («) 1859, 10 c., stone B, three proofs in different emerald green shades. Only one example with trace of crease. A very rare group. 1418 « 1859, 10 c. orange red, stone B, two choice copies in distinctly different shades, both with very good margins. One copy with tiny crease confined to upper left corner. A very fine pair of this rare color. Scott 4e; Yv 4. 91 Starting Price € 150 3’000 4’000 100 300 250 500 120 175 300 150
