    1978 (July 30): Provisional 40 b. on National Day 150 b. multicoloured, a superb unused block of 25, being the lower half of the sheet with interpanneau margin at top with 'House of Questa' imprint and Control 1D at base (the greying of the paper at left is from the printer's grip which occasionally shows in slightly smudged examples of the overprint). A magnificent multiple with full unmounted og. A great Persian Gulf rarity, minor stain in lower margin that does not detract from the appearance of what is believed to be the largest multiple extant of this rare stamp. Signed Todd AIEP Mi 190 = € 11'250/Gi = £ 10'000.
