    1869: 10 bani blue 'alabastru' (Transfer Type 4), a fine vertically bisected used example on 1871 'Recepisa de priimire' form numbered '1' at upper left, with straight line BOLGRAD at right and right half of adhesive tied by circular "BOLGRAD 2 / 3" datestamp well struck in black (Kiriac fig. 376). The form with slight fault at left but a fine bisected usage of great rarity with this being the second earliest date of use of the Bolgrad bisects (see Heimbüchler page 298). A wonderful item from the collector (Professor Odor of the Bucharest Lycée) who originally found all of the Bolgrad bisects. Signed Odor; cert. Pascanu (2019).rnProvenance: Corinphila sale 186 (May 2014), lot 1200.
