1843 "Bulls Eyes"
Sobral. 90r. black, two examples with mainly very generous margins, one showing marginal frame lines at base and left, cancelled by "sobral" straight-line handstamp (Ayres 1177), with the finer being additionally used with presumably a manuscript date. One example with minor ink erosion as occasionally found in the early period of Brazil, otherwise very fine. Approximately ten "Bull's Eyes" have been reported with this cancellation so far, mainly in the 90r. value. RHM 3. Photo
