    Jalapa 1856: 1 real yellow, 'Jalapa' District name overprint, a fine used horizontal pair clearly showing the 'Shifted Transfer' variety at top with the 'Correos Mejico' ribbon doubled, the stamps both being 'vertically' stretched. This plate deficiency must have been soon flattened out as neither Vannotti until 1989 nor this describer (since 1989) has found a further example. The pair is lightly cancelled by the scarce framed S.J.E / LOS LLANOS handstamp (Schatzkes fig. 619) in black. See article in 'Mexicana', April 1989 on pages 107-108 for further information. Rare, possibly unique.
