Great Britain 1867 2d Paris Exhibition Proof Plate 9, SGDP49b – Ex. Royal Collection
A rare and prestigious exhibition proof with royal provenance.
A superb four-margin imperforate example, lettered 'DL', printed in blue on soft white card. Produced for display at the 1867 Paris Exhibition, this proof comes from the only sheet of 240 ever printed, making it extremely scarce.
Proof sheets were taken from the 2d blue plate 9 on soft white card imperforate. These were specially printed for the Paris Exhibition where blocks of 20 cut from sheets were used for display.
Formerly part of The Royal Philatelic Collection of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, this piece offers both historical and philatelic importance.
Accompanied by a 2008 Royal Philatelic Society (RPS) Certificate of Authenticity.
A magnificent showpiece for the discerning collector.
