29 VFNH singles of the 4c-10c reddish violet, violet, deep rose lilac, milky violet, blackish lilac Numeral from the 1935-1967 Fourth Postage Due Issue on a variety of df papers, varying in fluorescence from 1-2, unchecked as to exact perfs, all different from the 4-10c stamps in other lots. All of the stamps differ from the other fine centered NH stamps offered in other lots of this issue, either with respect to shade, paper type or both. Unfortunately, I do not have time to identify every single stamp using the paper and gum table I have constructed. However, if you look at my description of lot 367, you will see a good example of how the table has been applied to a lot to meticulously identify all of the varieties in the lot. Most, if not all of the varieties in this lot should be present in the paper table.

Unitrade values this at $44.4. The stamps offered here grade 75-84 as follows:

Centering/Margins: 45/70, 50/70, 54/70

Paper Freshness: 5/5

Colour: 5/5

Absence of Visible Paper Flaws: 5/5

Perforations: 10/10

The lot is entirely unchecked as to exact perforations, but they will vary from 11.85 to 12.2 on both sides if measured with an instanta gauge.
