o
1861-67, 3¢ Rose, specialized accumulation of over 800 stamps including a block of 15, mostly chosen for cancellation. The bulk are simple geometrics, but there are a good number of better cancels too. There is even a bottom sheet margin single with plate "No. 21", a few rose pinks, and an unused imperf pair (65Pc). Probably about 95% are #65 and shades, but there are also quite a few E. & F. grills. Condition is a little mixed because just about everything was chosen cancel or something of a specialized nature; an interesting and very worthwhile lot.
