    1895/96: 1 a. blue, Setting 13, an unused block of 24 from the base of sheet, positions 41-48/49-56/57-64, showing the inverted clichés on positions 47, 58 and 64 (position 48 with the split frame at NE corner) and the consequent tête-bêche pairs, position 64 in this setting being the last before the recut. A slightly blurred impression in a deep resonant shade, vertical crease between fifth and sixth columns but a rare and most attractive multiple.
