Showpiece. Very Fine used block of 6 of the rare deep blue shade of the 15c Large Queen. This is the largest used block of this most elusive Large Queen shade that I've ever seen. New to the market, it comes with a 2019 Vincent Graves Greene photo certificate which states "Canada Scott No. 30e, used block of six, deep blue shade, perforated 12 x 12, genuine in all respects". Multiple 2-ring "3" numeral cancels (Quebec City). A Large Queen "pièce de résistance" at home in the finest collection or gold medal-worthy exhibit. Conservatively valued as six used singles by Scott catalogue but worth much more in Unitrade catalogue value and as possibly the largest known multiple of this shade. 2020 Scott US$2,550.00=
