1862: 1 p. lilac, printed on grey-bluish paper, used, cancelled by the "BOGOTA" Pearl oval in black, cut into top otherwise good to large margins, exhibits the colourless flaw above "PE" of "PESO" and other print characteristics which are consistent with the Sperati reproductions of this value and thus this stamp is the actual plate position used by Sperati to produce his forgeries, the only difference between the genuine and fake being the paper type, a rare example; one of two recorded. Cert. Bortfeldt (2008). Ex the Brian Moorhouse Estate.
Provenance: Ex Anstee Collection; ex The 'Esmeralda' Collection, Investphila, 21-22 March 2009, lot 1646.
