CONSIDERED TO BE THE FINEST MULTIPLE OF THE SPENCE & BROWN EXPRESS POST'S ICONIC HORSE & RIDER STAMP.

The only other known multiple of this issue is the famous block of 25 which is somewhat heavily toned, stained and creased. The bottom stamp in this pair, with full margins all around, may be the finest known example in existence (and the illustration in the Scott catalog).
