Great Britain 1867 10d red brown Plate 1, SG112a.
A superb unused, with original gum, imperforate horizontal pair lettered 'SA-SB'.
A wonderful Victorian variety of the utmost rarity, believed to be one of only three imperforate pairs recorded in private hands.
Provenance: Ex. collection of the famous and charismatic Scottish collector, Dr Douglas Latto.
The 10d value was introduced for prepayment of postage to India, Mauritius and Australia via Marseilles. The rate was changed in 1870 meaning there was little demand for the 10d stamp and it was withdrawn in 1877.
