20c Carmine Rose, Horizontal Pair, Imperforate Vertically (567a). Top selvage block of four containing two error pairs, top pair Mint N.H. with a few natural gum skips, bottom pair lightly hinged at bottom, deep rich color, the bottom pair particularly well-centered

VERY FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE BLOCK OF THE 20-CENT 1922 ISSUE IMPERFORATE VERTICALLY.

According to Gary Griffith, a complete pane of 100 was found in Pasadena Cal. in 1929, which was divided between two collectors. This would make 50 pairs total. At least one of the panes was broken into pairs and blocks. We have offered fewer than ten unduplicated pairs since keeping computerized records, but only two were Mint N.H. This is the only block located with Power Search and is especially desirable with a Mint N.H. pair.

With 2017 P.S.E. certificate stating "Mint N.H." Scott Retail as Mint N.H. and hinged pairs
