Lot 54 - 1: China large dragons - Interasia Auctions Limited Sale 78 China and other Asian Countries China, 1883-85 Large Dragon thick paper 3ca. vermilion on thick soft wove paper, the second and third reserve clichés [27] and [28], the former with rough perfs. resembling 1885 issue and black small seal cancellation, the latter has large hole private perforation 8 and repaired top right corner, a fine appearing set of these very rare clichés which are not known in any Setting and, therefore, are only believed to exist in proof form. These are offered on a hypothetical basis, emanating from the study of a vast multitude of Large Dragon 3 candarins stamps. From the Beckeman collection. Estimate HK$ 8,000 - 10,000 The second and third reserve clichés are relatively crude productions probably made toward the end of the Large Dragon issue. The proofs were struck side-by-side on the same sheetlet produced on a thick coarse manila paper. Only three such composite die proofs have been recorded. The two stamps (proofs) offered here might emanate from different sheetlets due to their contrasting shades and length of perforations at right and left sides respectively, since the proof impressions were struck close together. The two clichés are unmistakable : [27] is a "small" stamp with noticeable frame breaks at top and the top right, and [28] has a dot in margin outside the top left frame line, dot in lower right corner of the top left tablet, and a break in horizontal line over the "3" at lower right.

THE TIENTSIN TYPE 3 SEAL ON COVER IS RARE, SINCE IT WAS ONLY IN USE FOR ABOUT A YEAR. The 3 candarins single rate with China and Japan adhesives both applied in Tientsin at the time of posting by the sender in order to prepay the domestic and foreign postage. The preferential rate to the U.S.A. through the Japanese Post Office was 5 sen. The sender affixed a 3 candarins stamp to pay the domestic postage to Shanghai and his own Japan 5 sen stamp for transmission through the Japanese Post Office. Standard procedure was to affix 6 candarins of Chinese stamps at the post office through which the letter was being sent and in exchange for this the equivalent amount of foreign stamps would be applied by the Customs Post Office. Thus, there would be no domestic postage to pay. Interasia Auctions Limited Sale 78 China and other Asian Countries 1: China large dragons	In order to view Prices please Login or Join
