Sale 1090, Lot 1455, 1908-10 Washington-Franklin Issues (Scott 331-388)15c Pale Ultramarine (340). Brilliant color, Jumbo margins and mathematically perfect centering, light town cancel, Extremely Fine Gem, an absolutely superb example of this issue, ex Kirke, with 2010 P.S.A.G certificate (Gem 100 Jumbo), with 2011 P.F. and 2010 P.S.E. certificates (Superb 98 Jumbo; SMQ $385.00 as 98, unpriced in higher grade), as a 98J this is the highest grade awarded in the P.S.E. Population Report with no others equal, whether P.S.A.G. is correct in its call of 100J or P.S.E. is correct is academic, as this is quite likely the finest used example extant
