Description

Price Reduction.  After selling this offer for .99, I have been able to lower the cost to .99 for this set, a savings of .00.  This savings is due to my having procured a number of full panes that allows me to reduce my price.
This Buy-it-Now auction is for a description of the five different types of the Hammarskjold stamp, US Scott 1204 that is mounted on a White Ace page ready for placing in your stamp album.
In order for me to have prepared this descriptive page, it was necessary to break up both a left wide-selvedge pane and a right wide-selvedge pane.
Very few collectors realized that this stamp, that was deliberately printed inverted, or upside down, by the US Post Office in 1962, resulted in five different types of the stamp.
You will receive one printed White Ace page, 1 plaint printed page, 5 single different error stamps, 2 attached strips of five of all Type A to Type E stamps, and strips of mounts to mount the stamps.
See pictures of both pages.
Here is the complete story of this stamp:
The
Dag Hammarskjöld invert
is a 4 cent value postage stamp error issued on 23 October 1962 by the United States Postal Service (then known as the Post Office Department) one year after the death of Dag Hammarskjöld, Secretary-General of the United Nations, in an airplane crash. The stamp, showing the yellow background inverted relative to the image and text, is also known as the
Day's Folly
after Postmaster General J. Edward Day who ordered the intentional reprinting of the yellow invert commenting, "The Post Office Department is not running a jackpot operation."
The stamp reprint was in effect a deliberate error produced by the Post Office Department to avoid creating a rarity. It was decided to reprint 40 million of the inverted stamps after the discovery of the error so there would be no rarity factor in the inverted stamp and to prevent people profiting from the Postal Service's mistake. The reprints were issued to the public on 16 November and described as a
Special Printing
.
The black, brown and yellow commemorative stamp with yellow background correctly printed has a Scott catalogue number of 1203 but the inverted error is numbered 1204. The catalogue value of the invert is worth little more than the normal. The stamp, printed on Giori press in plates of 200, was designed by Herbert Sanborn and engraved by C. A. Brooks. 121,440,000 normal stamps were printed and 40,270,000 of the inverted reprint were produced.
It has not been recorded how many original invert stamps were produced and it is virtually impossible to tell a reprint from an original unless it has a clear early date, but an invert error on a first day cover, proving that stamp was from the original printing and not from the reprint, was sold in 2005 for US ,500.
The finder of the discovery sheet, a New Jersey jeweler named Leonard Sherman, obtained a court injunction against the reprinting, but it came too late to stop production. He did however receive an affidavit from the (then) Post Office Department that his was the original sheet.
In 1987 Sherman donated his sheet to the American Philatelic Society because the reprint dashed his hopes of owning a valuable stamp error.
