Welcome to FigStamps!
From the mountains of Petrópolis, Brazil, FigStamps offers carefully selected philatelic material for collectors who appreciate the history, detail and character found in classic stamps.
This listing features an interesting Great Britain Queen Victoria trio, including an early imperforate 2d Blue, a classic 1 Shilling Green, and an impressive 5 Shillings Rose high-value issue.
These are collectible classic stamps, but all three show faults and age-related damage. They are therefore offered strictly AS-IS, exactly as shown in the high-resolution images.

Historical Context:
The group spans several important phases of Victorian British philately, from the early line-engraved imperforate issues of the 1840s to later surface-printed stamps and high-value denominations of the 1880s. Even in faulty condition, such material can be useful for study, reference collections, cancellation research and album filling.
Condition:
Please note that this is a faulty lot.
The stamps show significant age and handling. Visible issues include close or cut margins, heavy cancellations, toning, staining, uneven or damaged perforations, hinge or paper remnants, possible thins and surface disturbance.
The 5 Shillings stamp in particular has substantial paper/fibrous residue or disturbance across a large portion of the back. The exact nature of this damage cannot be confirmed from the images alone.
No guarantee is made regarding gum, watermark, plate number, shade, repair, regumming, reperforation or other specialist characteristics.
Please study the front and back scans carefully before purchasing.
