Description
Official: 1949-51 3a on 7ch pale blue, type O2 'SERVICE' (in one operation with the surcharge), perf 12½, complete folded sheet of 112 (two panes, each 4x14), showing the listed errors at left pane R3/2 (second 'E' inverted), R6/3 ('S' inverted) and R7/4 (first 'E' inverted), and RIGHT PANE R4/1 and R5/1 (both 'C' inverted), fresh unused, odd minor creasing and separation, but fine for such an item. A rare and remarkable survival in this form and fascinating for study. SG O14/a/d.
Footnote
N.B. The inverted 'C' was wrongly given as LEFT pane R4/1, 5/1 in Part I for over 15 years, which shows the rarity of positional multiples!
