I already have a zillion R98a's, but I just love these large imperfs, and I simply could not pass this one up, given the huge margins.

With margins so tight how can you be sure it's an imperf ?

Seriously though, those could be the largest margins I've ever seen on an imperf. What a great piece.

is it safe to assume that this is from the left column of the pane? I can see the edges of the design for the next stamp on the right side, which would indicate a spacing of a specified width between images, yet the left margin is much wider than the right side spacing. or is the spacing on the pane not very precise?

I would assume it is a left margin example.
