Sale 1145, Lot 381, 1869 Pictorial Issue and Re-Issue30c Ultramarine & Carmine (121). Vertical pair, both stamps with bold red rosette cancels, small edge tears and creases, perf separations at right, otherwise Fine and extremely rare, while there are several large used blocks recorded of the 30c 1869 Issue, they invariably have smudged black cork cancels and the majority of these cancels are not particularly attractive, this pair with red cancels is exceptional and may well be the only multiple extant with a colored cancel, ex Juhring, Scott Retail as pair plus premium for two red cancels
