Auction: SW1002 - Latin America, including the Tito Collection - Part I
Lot: 1391

1845, 60r. black, worn impression, type II, a remarkable pair possessing margins of exceptional size showing part of an adjoining adhesive at base, cancelled by "Correio Gral. Da Corte" datestamp. Two tears at top, of which one has been closed. The largest multiple recorded of the elusive 60r. type I, which is the most seldom seen of the 60 r. stamps. Five used pairs are reported to exist, this possessing the very important significance of being printed on thin paper (in this case being, out of the norm, scarcer than the "Bull"s Eye" paper). RHM 6A = R$ 12,000. Starting Price US$ 750
