1876 8d Orange Pl.1. Very fine used example lettered IF showing the very wide imperforate wing margin (guillotined) variety at right. Neatly tied to a very clean cover to ‘Yokohama via San Fransisco’ by a Deal ‘240’ duplex for AP.25.1877. BPO Yokohama cds on reverse for JY.2.1877. This unusual practice of guillotining the wing margin between the F and G rows is unique to the 8d value. SG156.
