Sale 1224, Lot 119, 1869 Pictorial Issue15c Brown & Blue, Ty. I (118). Extra wide margins and choice centering, bright colors and proof-like impressions, unobtrusive cork cancel

EXTREMELY FINE GEM. A HUGE USED EXAMPLE OF THE 15-CENT TYPE I 1869 PICTORIAL.

Small backstamp. With 2017 P.S.A.G. certificate (95J used). With 2017 P.S.E. certificate (XF-Superb 95; SMQ $4,750.00). We agree with P.S.A.G. on this one and we are vexed why P.S.E. did not apply the Jumbo appellation. Even so, only four grade higher in the P.S.E. Population Report
