- Lot Description
A pair of framed and matted Confederate States of America, 2 cents John C. Calhoun stamp proof sheets. Each sheet with 100 stamps. When the letter rate was changed from five to ten cents in July, 1862, the CSA Post Office sent an order to Thomas De La Rue & Co. to prepare printing plates for two cent and ten cent stamps. The existing one and five cent designs were altered. The two new plates were shipped to Richmond, but were never used. Some private printings from the plates have been made. Framed height 16", width 13". sheet height 10.5", width 8.25". Provenance: From the Collection of historian Arthur E. Chapman, Woodstock, Georgia.
