India DLR QV 1858 SG42a 2a Yellow-buff Imperf Pair VLMM CV£3750 , 1855-1878 QV Early De La Rue Printing ,

£3,750.00

Provenance Ex-Koh-i-Nor Auction 1986 lot 293 (Listed at that time as SG44a Dull orange still unpriced by SG) – In 2018 Spink described it as SG42a Yellow-buff, which would make is a deep shade example (perhaps with orange influence in my view – a somewhat hybrid shade) – A very fine and Rare imperforate pair from NE corner of sheet – The early De La Rue imperforate issues are recognised to have a quite thin gum application
