Fresh and F/VF mint lower sheet margin positional block of 6 of the 1935 issue 10c carmine rose "Mountie", with the middle stamp in the lower row showing the rare "BROKEN LEG" (position 48) plate flaw. The upper right and upper left stamps in the block are LH with the balance, including the variety stamp, all NH. Conservatively valued as a Fine NH example of the variety only. If revalued by Unitrade as a split-grade F/VF NH (as some auction houses are too often tempted to do), the value would be much higher. 2020 Unitrade.
