1909, $2.00 Black on Blue, 1hhd., Beer (REA88; Priester 96). Large and even margins, "F J B Co." perforated cancel with partial date, few faults including repaired at right adding part of design from another stamp

VERY FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE EXAMPLE OF THE ONE-HOGSHEAD 1909 ISSUE. ONLY FOUR ARE RECORDED IN THE PRIESTER CENSUS.

We offered one of the other four known in our Tolman sale. That other copy was extensively repaired with portions of the central design painted in. The example offered here is a very presentable copy of this rarity.

Ex "Scarsdale". With 2012 P.F. certificate
