    Orizava 8 r. red-lilac, the stupendous piece with seven superb examples, each witth enormous margins all round, forming a 56 reales franking, cancelled by two complete strikes of the boxed & dated ORIZAVA datestamp (Schatzkes fig. 1090) in black (Oct 5). Just 976 of the 8 reales were invoiced to Orizava and this is the largest multiple franking recorded from this District. Some minor bends to the piece of absolutely no importance and not affecting the spectacular appearance of an outstanding and rare piece for the philatelic connoisseur. One of the gems of Mexican classic philately. Cert. Jaretzky (1988).
