Losnr. : 4502 Brunei
1906 (Oct 1): Labuan 2 c. on 8 c. black & vermilion, perf. 13½, overprinted 'BRUNEI.' in red, an unused vertical strip of ten, with sheet margin at top and at base, fourth stamp showing "L" for "I" in BRUNEI, fifth stamp showing variety "Overprint TWO CENTS Double", the tenth stamp with variety "TWO CENTS Omitted", protective hinge between third and fourth stamps, large part or unmounted og., superbly fresh and fine with just one sheet printed thus: therefore only 10 examples of each error can exist - of which two examples of each from the first two columns of the sheet are housed in the collection of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, and thus only 8 are in private hands. A magnificent and rare multiple. Cert. Holcombe (1998) Gi = £ 29'200+.rnrnNote: The surcharge was made from a Setting of 50 in two operations, one sheet had a misplacement of the Plate resulting in the fifth row receiving a second surcharge and the tenth row receiving none. The "L" flaw was probably the result of an extraneous piece of metal on the Plate.rnrnAusruf : 15.000 CHFZuschlag : nicht verkauft
