$50.00 Yellow Green, Wine (RE107C). Serial no. 19542, small neat handstamp cancel, light crease in tablet portion, couple trivial filled staple holes top left

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE EXAMPLE OF THE 1934 $50.00 WINE STAMP.

The high-denomination wine stamps came into use when the law was changed, allowing revenue stamps to be affixed to the case rather than each individual bottle. They were issued in booklet form, perforated only at left. The first series (Scott RE56-RE59) was used prior to Prohibition and on religious and medicinal wine during Prohibition. They were reprinted in 1934 after Prohibition (Scott RE107A-RE107D). These reprints are considerably scarcer than their earlier counterparts and have much thinner serial numbers.

Ex Tolman. With 2007 P.S.E. certificate
