    5 c. deep lilac-rose, no accent on 'u' of 'Republica', the unused marginal block of eight from left of sheet, positions 43-46/50-53 on the sheet of 70 subjects, without gum but an outstandingly fresh impression and with large margins all round. Slight creasing as usual with multiples of this issue but believed to be the largest recorded multiple in this vivid shade. A rarity of the Escuditos issue. Cert. Solari (2009), Del Mazo (2009) Kneitschel 10a = $ 1'800+/Scott = $ 1'600+.

    Provenance: Collections Sabbatini, Falzaresi & 'Patagonia'.
