VERY FINE. AN EXTREMELY RARE SET OF PANAMA-PACIFIC SMALL DIE PROOFS OF THE 1907 JAMESTOWN ISSUE.

In 1915 a limited special printing of 413 different small die proofs was created for the Panama-Pacific Exposition. They were printed on yellowish wove paper, and it is believed no more than five examples of each stamp were produced. This set of Jamestown Panama-Pacific proofs is the first we have offered since keeping computerized records 30 years ago and we would be very surprised if five sets actually exist.

Each with 1991 P.F. certificate
