1872, 5b. blue, part of a "decoupage" proof sheet in a marginal block of 29. (a sky-blue card has been added on back side to improve its appearance). The "decoupage" process utilized fragments of the design carefully prepared to accentuate the final impression by using these as an underlay to the sheet receiving the final impression. Despite faults, a desirable piece; large blocks are rare.
