1911 Cape KEVII 1d carmine (SG 71) IMPERF (MACHINE CUT) TOP & BOTTOM.
The
"Rarest Stamp Issue of the Union of South Africa" (de Jager, Kamffer et al, SAP 06/2001)
being an
INTERPROVINCIAL PERIOD VENDING MACHINE STAMP from the "penny-in-the-slot" machines introduced in 1911 (only 3 locations at that time).
A brilliant used example with perfect crisp Cape Town cds 27 SEP 11.
The EARLIEST RECORDED DATE for any of these coil stamps.
Additionally to showing the machine cuts top & bottom this stamp is a COIL JOIN example with overlapping perforations from the stamp above top still adherent along the top perfs (and tied in places by the cds).
It is of the correct 24mm guage vertically as per the machines. See scans for detail image.
These machine coils are extensively covered in the SAP article (see scans) where the authors chronicle the lifelong hunt by Eddie de Lange and speculate on examples extant.
They record no Cape 1d's, the existence of which later confirmed in SAP 12/2002 by Bram Leeflang.
Technically, single used examples are problematic in that they can be "created" simply by blade-cutting a vertical pair.
Thus, the only PROVEABLE examples that can be confidently accepted are tied-on-cover use (one postcard known) or coil-join-with-tying-postmark as per this subject stamp.
A superb example, a great rarity for Cape Edwardian, Union, Interprovincial or Coil Stamp connoisseurs.
See extensive scans accompanying.
