    40 parale greenish blue on yellowish paper, printed in Jassy between 1860 and 1861, the complete mint sheet of 32 subjects (8 x 4) showing the central rows tête-bêche (and thus with eight vertical tête-bêche pairs), some creasing apparent but fresh and fine for this with large part typical yellowish-brown original gum. No more than two sheets existing in this shade, this being the finer of the two (the other being ex Rothschild & Cornelia). A rare and exceptional multiple. Illustrated in Edition d'Or on page 66. Signed Bühler; cert. Pfenninger (1969) and Heimbüchler (2010).
