CSA 7-L, 5¢ blue DOUBLE PANE OF 200 showing White Tie Variety (position 30 UR) and ten sets of gutter pairs with filled in frames as well as a few other an UNLISTED BRASS RULE AT RIGHT in the sixth, seventh and ninth rows. This is listed in the CSA Catalog only as existing on the top row. Clearly, that is not the only location, nor is it logical that it should be only on the top. This was the topic of a joint article by Kevin Andersen and Trish Kaufmann in the 1Q 2019 issue of the CP. With full original gum that has never seen a hinge—even in the margins—fresh with excellent color due to complete protection from light, usual edge faults and gum creasing usually found on large multiples, as well as gum staining at upper left and few spots at bottom. Hand-held camera photo is fuzzy but the impression is not, Catalog Value well exceeds $6,000; Brass Rules are only now being studied to any real degree. $4,000.

Price: $4000
