    1865 (Jan 1): First Printing Group ½ real bright ultramarine on greyish wove paper with slight surface blueing, fine impression, the superb unused block of 42 being the right hand half of the sheet of 84 subjects, positions 7-12, 19-24, 31-36, 43-48, 55-60, 67-72, 79-84, with the sixth stamp showing a small tear, full marginal rule vertically at right and horizontally at both top and at base, minor bends between rows and some colour loss in small patches but this is of no real significance as this multiple represents the largest recorded of the First Printing where only two other large blocks (of 12 and 18) exist. A stunning multiple of great freshness with large part or unmounted original gum. One of the great gems of all South American Philately. Unique.rnProvenance: Collection Bill H. Homan Jnr.; Harmers, London, 15 Dec 1993, lot 1081.rn
