    1850: Inclinado 30 r. black on 'Bull's Eye' yellowish medium paper, Type II, the superb used example with large even margins all round, neatly cancelled by large part 'Correio Ceara' datestamp (Dec 2) in black. An exceptional and extremely rare stamp, formerly a horizontal pair housed in the Niso Vianna collection and since separated, this example being much finer than the other known example used in Rio de Janeiro (Walter Taveira sale, Investphila, 16 March 2012, lot 1372). Just three used examples of this rarity are recorded and one of the highlights of Brazilian classic philately. Cert. Peter Meyer (2014) RHM 5C = RR.
