Abstract

Issues X, Y and Z were printed in multicolours. Colour checks in the form of coloured discs 3mm in diameter are seen in the right hand margin, next to the last stamp of the bottom row, in each Pane, of each value, in issues X, Y and Z, except in the 13c value, of issue Z, which are next to the last stamps of the two bottom rows. Colour checks from top to bottom, correspond to the colours used for Pane numbers from left to right, on all Panes, of all values, of issues X and Y, but from right to left in issue Z. Cumulative totals of progressive columns of stamps, are seen in top and bottom margins, printed in black, on all Panes, of all values, in issues X and Z, but printed in brown in issue Y. [excerpt]
