One of Two Known Mendum's Family Wine Emporium10 Cent Ribbed Mendum's Family Wine Emporium. 10 Cents, Ribbed Frame. HB-180, EP-123, S-132a. Extremely Fine. Another highlight of this highly comprehensive collection of Encased Postage Stamps and a true rarity. Just two examples are documented for this ribbed frame 10 Cent issue. Both at one time were part of the Mayer Collection and this is the item that was not offered in the 2004 Ford sale. Having studied both, this encasement has an edge over the other in terms of mica and stamp with both being extremely high quality. The case on this piece while still highly attractive, lost the minute silvering of the other and shows in a red-brown tone. Last sold within the 2012 Kelly Collection where it saw vigorous bidding and brought $8,625.
Ex. Frederick R. Mayer Collection, Lot 12290. 2008; Ex. William H. Kelly Collection, Lot 15623. 2012.
