Sale 1283, Lot 1592, 1909 Lincoln Centenary Issue2c Carmine, Lincoln, Panama-Pacific Small Die Proof on Wove (367P2a). Deep rich color, very fresh

VERY FINE AND RARE PANAMA-PACIFIC SMALL DIE PROOF OF THE 1909 LINCOLN CENTENARY 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 2c Lincoln Panama-Pacific proof is the first we have offered since keeping computerized records 30 years. We would be very surprised if five actually exist.

With 2016 P.S.E. certificate.
