90c Orange (229). Top imprint and plate no. 25 block of ten, original gum, lightly hinged, vibrant color, right stamps natural "lightning bolt" paper wrinkle from production

FINE-VERY FINE. A BEAUTIFUL AND RARE LIGHTLY-HINGED PLATE BLOCK OF THE 90-CENT 1890 ISSUE.

Plate 25 was the only plate used to print the 90c 1890 Issue, and plate blocks of this high value are exceedingly rare. Apart from the bottom position plate block in our recent Curtis sale, one has to go back to 2003 to find another in one of our auctions.
