Description
#C3a, 24c Carmine rose and blue, Center Inverted, position 7, with natural straight-edge at top, brilliantly fresh color which is lacking in many of the
other examples from the unique sheet, full o.g. with natural gum bend (incorrectly called a "crease" on the accompanying certificate), a fine example of
the most famous stamp in all of U.S. philately; 1974 APS certificate; ex-Col. Green, Matthies. (See color photo)
