| Lot #2133 United States 1909 Bluish Paper 1909 4c orange brown, h.r., reasonably well centered for this difficult stamp, reperforated at right, fresh and fine stamp, with 2000 PFC (According to Johl (Vol. 1, page 175), the only source of the 4c and 8c Bluish paper stamps was the archives of the Post Office Department. Approximately 80 of each were traded for rare stamps missing from the archives. Given the failed experimental nature of the paper mixture, it is no surprise that virtually all copies are off center to some extent) * Catalog #360 Catalog Value $27,500 | Price Realized $11,000.00
