Lot: 55

Brazil1845, 60r. black, greyish paper, type II, blocks of 14 (2x7 )and 12 (2x6), together with two pairs, all featuring intermediate impression, the two larger multiples and one pair being marginal displaying outer frame line, clear to mostly large margins, just touching elsewhere, all used on piece of judicial document carried through the post (weighing 30 ounces according to the franking), tied by cds's of Rio de Janeiro. One pair has been slightly misplaced and has some imperfections affecting the other multiples which do not detract, due to being used across the flap of what was a fairly large package. To our knowledge, this is with all probability the largest franking of this value either on piece or on complete postal document. Cert. Moorhouse. RHM 6. Ex Hubbard. Photo
