Owner's Description

Fr. 1602 $1 1928B Experimental Y-B Block Silver Certificate PMG 63 EPQ.
This BEP experiment consisted of the X-B and Y-B blocks of the 1928A and B Series (these two series were on the presses at the same time) testing different rag content in the paper, while the regular paper Z-B block for these two series was used as the control block. The X-B block paper was comprised of 50% linen and 50% cotton and the Y-B block paper was made up of 75% linen and 25% cotton. This well preserved example has natural paper wave and embossing.
