Wx12 / Wx12A Combination Pair

I was wondering whether anyone is familiar with a WX12 / WX12A combination pair. It is not listed in Scott, but I saw a block of four which included the combination. I do not have an image since I do not own the item.

Green's may have that information but I don't have that catalog. I reached out to the Christmas Seal guru and he said he does not know off the top of his head but will call me back. I have a full sheet of WX13 but not the 12 or I would look.

Edit:

I play with the 1913 seals since they started to show up on my PP covers and cards. Just keep missing out on the Chicago Union lookalike. Have all the perforated other. That includes the WX11 which thankfully does not exist on cover except as a faked cover.

This is a bottom left corner margin block of four. Top left stamp is type IIa, the other three are type II.

Green does not specify that the 12 and 12a were mixed in a sheet, rather each was produced as a sheet of 100. Now the press sheets were two hundred stamps with a top and bottom sheet of 100. Each of those 100 sheets types could have been printed on one press sheet of two hundred.

There is not more clearer information. The guru will look in his sheet stock to see if he has the 12 or 12a sheets of 100 (I want to buy one each of those anyway) and see if either is mixed.

As an aside, Rumsey's WESTPEX Sale lot 1599 was a wonderful exhibit of seal covers used only on the 24th or 25th with a WX12 and WX13.

Back on topic, as both 12 and 12a are $7.50 seals you can't go wrong buying it. I would.

Thanks for the info.

You are right, it was a lovely collection.

John Denune has both sheets in stock. $850 for both sheet types.

John's website and reality are not necessarily the same. He is unsure if he has them when we spoke Wednesday.
