On original gray card backing, showing distinct doubling of the design in the form of a kiss print, this is especially evident at top, fresh and Very Fine, a rare and desirable variety, extra care was generally taken when pulling proofs and especially so for a project as important as the Roosevelt Presentation Albums, the existence of this proof is quite remarkable, ex "Elite", Scott Retail as normal $450.00
