VERY FINE AND CHOICE ASSEMBLAGE OF EACH OF THE FIVE POSITION BLOCKS FROM THE SHEET OF 100 OF THE $5.00 1918 FRANKLIN ISSUE.

Apart from purchasing an entire sheet of 100, which are all but nonexistent (the last one we sold was in 1989), this is the perfect way to display the $5.00 1918 Issue -- and it fits on an album page.
