The margin shows an engraved diagonal line at the right side -- which is half an arrow; the arrow marking is listed by Facit, however it is seldom offered. An interesting item for a very popular thematic!

278/278a (Facit #266CB) [1938 5 öre Gustaf V 80th Birthday, pair with straight-edge on right side only] NH CB pair with Superb centering. Wonderfully fresh. Quite scarce with perfect centering both around the whole pair and within the individual stamps.

278/278a (Facit #266CB) [1938 5 öre Gustaf V 80th Birthday, pair with straight-edge on right side only] NH CB pair with VF centering. Bottom margin attached (thus had been mounted inverted in a booklet). The right side of the margin shows the a registration bar marking. This type of marking is called "regm" in specialized Facit listings, but this particular marking is not mentioned by Facit -- and I cannot recall previously having an example on this issue. A very attractive example of a scarce pair. Normally $59 without this unusual marginal marking.

278 Booklet COVER ONLY (Facit #266, H36) [1938 5 öre Gustaf V 80th Birthday] Booklet cover, with staple, but NO stamps. Logically creased at the binding line on the front cover. Panel text (in Swedish) about postal services and rates. Such booklet covers are often requested because they allow for display without the high cost of buying a booklet containing stamps. Keep in mind that the complete booklet containing stamps ranges in price from $100 (containing #278) to $400-500 (containing BC/CB pairs)!

322a/322 (Facit #332CB) [1941 5 kr blue Stockholm Palace, pair with straight-edge on right side only] CB 4-BLOCK, Used with Superb centering and ESKILTUNA cancellations. Correct greenish-blue color of the early printings. This example came off packages of ball bearings sent by airmail in 1941-1942 from Sweden to the Ford Motor Company in the U.S., for military production -- would have to have been sent on the dangerous secret night flights from Stockholm to Scotland and then onward by clipper flying boats to the U.S. [see the book Blockade Runners]. One of the key BC/CB pair issues -- such nice centering is quite scarce! Attractive and completely sound in all respects. Blocks of this BC/CB issue are scarce because most of the heavy packages they were on (or on parcel cards) received very rough treatment. Priced at only the value of two Superb pairs.

Correct greenish-blue color of the early printings. This example came off packages of ball bearings sent by airmail in 1941-1942 from Sweden to the Ford Motor Company in the U.S., for military production -- would have to have been sent on the dangerous secret night flights from Stockholm to Scotland and then onward by clipper flying boats to the U.S. [see the book Blockade Runners]. One of the key BC/CB pair issues -- such nice centering is quite scarce! Attractive and completely sound in all respects. Such large blocks of this BC/CB issue are extremely scarce because most of the heavy packages they were on (or on parcel cards) received very rough treatment. While it may not be obvious, stamps like these helped win WWII.
