Lot #7 - LARGE HERMES HEAD - 1861 paris print
GREECE: 1l brown with vertically laid background in used bl.8. Touched at top and with several creases as expected for such a large multiple (practically one stamp without faults) but still a great rarity. It is quite uncommon in used bl.8, ratherly seen in strips of 4 or 5 canc. "67", one of the largest used blocks, perhaps second to a used bl.12 known. (Hellas 1a).
Lot #8 - LARGE HERMES HEAD - 1861 paris print
GREECE: Newspaper "Η ΠΕΛΛΟΠΟΝΗΣΟΣ/1 ΙΑΝ.62", fr. with 1l. chocolate-brown cancelled "ΚΑΛΑΜΑΙ (31)*2.ΙΑΝ.62". Stamp just touched at upper left corner but still fine for this. Rare. (Hellas 1a).

Lot #12 - LARGE HERMES HEAD - 1861 paris print
GREECE: 1866 cover franked with 2 strips of five on 2l. brown-bistre, 3 stamps with faults, otherwise a very nice item.

The "kalamai" post mark does not belong to cover, the correct arrival cancelation at the reverse is "ΑΘΗΝΑΙ (1)*15 ΙΟΥΝ. 66". Very rare. (Hellas 2c)
