ONE OF ONLY TWO RECORDED EXAMPLES OF THIS ERROR, THIS BEING THE ONLY EXAMPLE IN A COMPLETE PANE.

This perforation error was caused when the sheet was accidentally folded at the corner before going through the perforating machine. This caused the double perforations along the top two stamps at right. The other recorded example of this error is contained in a block of nine (ex-Floyd, Whitman).
