30c Orange (38). Block of four, original gum, lightly hinged, vibrant color as fresh as the day it was printed, top stamps tiny hinge slivers

VERY FINE. A RARE SOUND ORIGINAL-GUM BLOCK OF FOUR OF THE 30-CENT 1860 ISSUE. A DIFFICULT BLOCK TO FIND IN SUCH WONDERFUL CONDITION.

This block clearly demonstrates why it is so difficult to find this issue with choice centering. The narrow space between subjects on the plate makes it almost impossible for the perforations to clear the design on all four sides. This is one of the finest we have ever offered.

With 1981 P.F. certificate for block of eight.
