Sale 1011, Lot 496, 1c-6c 1869 Pictorial Issue (Scott 112-115)3c Ultramarine (114). Four singles, each wildly misperfed creating four distinct varieties, first with full "No. 10" at top, second with part imprint at top with perfs well clear of top of imprint frame, perforated thru "3" at bottom and s.e. capturing the rest of the design at bottom, third perforated far in on two sides creating a two-thirds stamp, last a "movie film" single with two-thirds of bottom part of design at top and one-third of top part of design at bottom, couple inconsequential flaws, a striking group which would be a nice addition to an exhibit, far more desirable than the typical "merely cut in" 3c misperfs
