1861, 10¢, Paterson printing, dark blue (Scott 2b), two
singles, one もっと見る 1861, 10¢, Paterson printing, dark blue (Scott 2b), two singles, one with large margins all around, other full margins on three sides and cut along bottom frameline, tied by two strikes of "Augusta GA ??? 3" circular datestamp on orange cover to "Mrs. Maria Valentine, Care M.T. Valentine), Richmond VA", Very Fine, with Jack E. Molesworth description on reverse noting that a CSA certificate exists calling it dark blue. Jack and the 3 PSE experts disagree, and it was sold as an indigo shade at a well known NYC auction house in 1997 (lot 3562) and again in 1999 (lot 1843) by Ivy & Mader, where acquired by the consignor. Lot numbers noted on the back of the cover, with 1994 P.S.E. certificate as indigo signed by experts Richard Frajola, Calvet Hahn and Randy Shoemaker. Offered as a dark blue because the CSA stands behind its prior opinion.
We suspect Mrs. Maria Valentine was a member of the Valentine family, headed by Mann S. Valentine II, who made his fortune with Valentine's meat juice, a 19th Century health tonic of iron made from boiled down bovine blood and meat and juices.
