1c Green, Louisiana Purchase, Small Die Proof on Wove (323P1). Larger margins than the usual Roosevelt proof, probably because this was created later, small stain spot at bottom right, appears Very Fine and rare, the 1904 Louisiana Purchase issue was not yet released when the Roosevelt presentation albums were prepared in 1903, and so was not included in the initial album production, several years after the albums were produced, ten were updated with stamp issues that came after 1903, therefore, Roosevelt proofs of post-1903 issues are more than eight times rarer than proofs of the earlier issues
