LOMBARDY-VENETIA, Definitive Issue 1850
45 Centesimi light blue, handmade paper, Type I, featuring a distinct marginal imprint and a short margin piece on the right. The stamp is canceled individually with a delicate pen cross.
Old Austria Special Catalog 2008, No. 5 H I / approx. €400.- ++
In my opinion, this piece (see color image) is genuine and has been marked with my signature.
The stamp is broadly margined on three sides and has surplus margin on the right. It is vividly colored and exceptionally fresh in print. The reverse retains clear traces of original gum, indicating it was not washed but rather represents a so-called “Springer” (migratory stamp).
This is an impactful, dewy-fresh CABINET PIECE!
