This unlisted (?) Paraguay was seen on eBay. A fantasy?
|
|
This Paraguay fantasy is an early one--and a scarce one--but this copy shown is,
I believe, a Spiro Bros forgery of the fantasy. Don't print my answer just
yet--look in Melville's book for the story on the original. The original I think
was produced by the Allan Taylor gang. [Brian McGrath]

Indeed so, it is in Melville. The item was printed in 1868 by the Boston Gang, before the
first stamps of Paraguay were issued. [Rick Scott]

This is indeed the common Spiro forgery. The SAT originals were finely
engraved....and rare. [David M. Stirling]
