(3280b) 1999 FLAG & CITY 33¢ MULTI, IMPERF
STRIP ......................................................................... PH
One of only 4 known die-cut self-adhesive panes with the
die-cutting completely omitted on right pair, leaving completely
imperforate vertical pair of Poppy (Scott 4183) and Iris (Scott
4178) stamps. The error, caused by a 44mm shift to the left,
leaves the remaining stamps severely misperfed. All stamps
on reverse side are normal. Accompanied by photocopy of Nov
19, 2007, Linn’s news article. Part of original discovery. Very
fine and MINT never hinged.
$750
Water activated coil, horizontal imperforate strip of 4. Fresh,
MINT never hinged, very fine. Scarce strip, listed but not priced
in Scott. (2013 APS Cert #204705).
1531
(3657) 2002 LOVE 37¢ MULTI, SILVER OMITTED
MAJOR ERROR TRANSITION STRIP ..................... PH $1500
Interesting and possibly unique transition strip of 5, with silver
completely omitted on 1 stamp (second from left), nearly so
on all others. Color omission in this case results from ink
starvation, rather than a color misregistration (3657b). While
the net result on a single stamp is the same (missing color),
cause is completely different. Very fine exhibition piece on full
original backing paper (with all other stamps removed by
non-collector). Important item.
1532
(4125d) 2008 LIBERTY BELL ‘FOREVER’ MULTI,
COPPER OMITTED ................................................... PH $1500
Extremely scarce error on 2008-dated version with large
microprinting. Copper color ‘FOREVER’ completely omitted.
This is the first MINT example we’ve been able to offer. Very
fine.
