    1937 (Oct 3): The "Ministerium" Miniature Sheet, showing Boris III 2 leva red brown with black imprint at base '3 October 1937'. A fresh and very fine mint example of this rare sheet, slight horizontal bend at base where the sheet was not gummed below the black overprint, this does not affect the frontal appearance of a very rare sheet with full unmounted original gum - a mere 20 examples were printed thus.

    Note: The sheet actually measures 78 x 110 mm., the measurement in Michel being erroneous, for reference see also Corinphila sale 133, June 2002, lot 1402.
