  • Lot# : 4433 Guatemala

    1871 (March 1): 1 c. ochre on buff, an unused block of fifty (10 x 5) from the base of the sheet of 150 subjects, positions 91-100 / 141-150, fresh and very fine, large part or unmounted og. A scarce multiple.rnrnNote: The Guatemalan first issue engraved by Joubert was slightly larger than the current French Cérès stamps. By using this perf. 14 x 13½ machine, the margins between the stamps had to be very narrow (1 mm.), therefore the machine invariably cut the sides of the stamps.
