With the introduction of the loose leaf, however, all this has changed and nowadays the collectors are trying to get anything unusual on the stamps and the larger the margins the better.

The demand for these stamps is increasing daily to such an extent that certain sets issued two years ago are fetching prices of six to seven times their face value.
