90c Carmine & Black, Re-Issue (132). Deep rich colors on bright paper, light strike of magenta cancel, faint corner crease at bottom right

FINE APPEARANCE. A RARE USED EXAMPLE OF THE 90-CENT 1869 PICTORIAL RE-ISSUE WITH A MAGENTA CANCEL.

SMQ estimates that approximately 40 used copies exist and our own experience confirms this estimate. Most are either off-center or have small faults and nearly all have black cancels. A Power Search review found only two other used examples with any kind of colored cancel -- also a magenta/purple cork.

Ex Anderson and Ainsworth. With 1978 and 1992 P.F. certificates. Scott Retail with no premium for the colored cancel
