About this piece
A superb unused, with original gum, lightly mounted example of this rare departmental issue showing the merest trace of a previous stamp hinge.
A magnificent example of one of the key rarities of GB philately.
Less than six mint examples are known in private hands and this is certainly the finest example of the two we have handled in the past 25 years and, quite probably, is the finest example in existence.
Provenance: Ex. Maurice Burras (1963) and Lou Manzi (1997).
Accompanied by a 1987 British Philatelic Association (BPA) Certificate of Authenticity.
These stamps from King Edward VII's reign were used by revenue officials in the provinces, for mail to and from Head Office passing without a stamp. The London Office used these stamps only for foreign mail.
