1858, 1 d. blue, six single examples, two pairs with both including substituted type 12 in position 16 of which one horizontal (types 11-17) and one vertical (types 11 / 11), as well as strip of four comprising types 5-1-2-3 thus including portions of two transfer panes, with margins varying from clear to ample except for two positions in the strip which are cut slightly into, all used on 24 December 1858 large part judicial wrapper and tied by ''Trujillo'' straight-line handstamps. Suspicion of some stamps to be missing, second stamp at right was added at base in order to improve the appearance where a portion of the wrapper is lacking and vertical tear repaired on the reverse with hinges and paper, as well as other faults affecting some of the adhesives, most of them expected to be encountered in such a large document, though still a stunning franking for exhibition, ranked as one of the largest recorded of this value. Cert. Moorhouse. Scott 3. Ex Bustamante.
