"S1" Obliterator: 1863-71 4c. bluish slate perf.12½ in a horizontal pair with inverted watermark, cancelled by a superb and complete strike of the "S1" in deep bright blue. This pair with the typically blind perfs. associated with this value, there is one pulled perf. at left (which is not unusual). Well centred and very fresh. A striking and highly desirable pair which is probably a unique multiple. Photo
