Major Re-entry

This is an over-all major re-entry showing virtually the entire design strongly doubled.

An article about various types of doubling on stamps in the March 2008 American Philatelist* shows this re-entry and states that it is thought to be unique. Obviously, it is NOT, as seen by this example. Of course, unless only one sheet was printed, this re-entry would have occurred on every single sheet printed, so it is not unique, by any means. Scarce, perhaps. Not reported, maybe. But unique, no.

Unfortunately, I do not own the pictured stamp. I was bidding on it a couple of years ago on eBay, but when the bidding went over $100USD, I let it go. Now that I see how scarce it might be, I wish I had continued bidding! ;(
