Description: Sweden Scott 50var/Facit 50aVAR, 10 öre Provisional overprint on 12 öre blue Ringtyp perf 13, used example with well-placed WESTERÅS 22.11.1889 town cancel, no marks on back, centering and perfs as per scan, with VARIETY: overprint significantly shifted up and left with numerals extending outside frame lines at top, overall a clean and fresh stamp without hidden faults. This is one of the most dramatic colour shifts I have seen in 50 years of looking at classic Sweden! Scott value is $?? Facit does not value this variety One of the items from my personal collection of Swedish stamps and better town cancels I am now selling-- please check my other listings! Save on shipping when you buy multiple lots at the same time! Regardless of where in the world you live, you pay a flat fee for the first item, and just 25 cents for each subsequent item! Please note that discounted shipping only works when you pay for multiple items at the SAME time. Important: There are certain countries in Asia, Africa and South America to which I will ONLY ship via Registered Mail, due to a large number of losses. In all cases, Registered Mail is strongly recommended for purchases with a value of USD 250.00, or greater! Please look at my other listings!
