Lot 1014 | [ E ] |
1911 composite essay by Samuel Reading for the 1d Fullface George V design used on postal stationery, comprising a handpainted frame in blue with vignette portrait of Abraham Lincoln taken from the 1905 U.S. 5c stamp (no suitable portrait of George V being available) on thin card (38mm x 83mm). The frame design is based on the 1902 U.S. 8c stamp a used copy of which was originally affixed above the essay (as shown in the BW catalogue illustration) but has now been removed. Some minor marks on card which do not detract from this exceptional and highly important Australian Commonwealth essay  | ||
