A striking printing error on the ubiquitous 1d Lilac, seldom encountered in such quality.
This 1881 1d Deep Purple (Die II), SG 173c, is a Post Office fresh unmounted top sheet-marginal example printed on the gummed side. The reversed impression makes for an arresting and genuinely scarce variety, and the marginal position adds considerably to its appeal. Seldom seen in this quality, it will reward the specialist of the surface-printed varieties.
