3c Deep Violet (537a). Vibrant color, neat "Salem Ohio" local precancelFINE AND EXTREMELY RARE. FEWER THAN 20 USED EXAMPLES OF THE RED VIOLET ARE CURRENTLY KNOWN.
The Philatelic Foundation has certified only six singles, one pair (now split) and one block of four as genuine. Another block (uncertified) has a straight edge at right and slight thinning.
With 2006 A.P.S. certificate. In our opinion this rarity is undercatalogued in Scott
