1942 (Feb.) £1 purple and black on carmine paper, top right corner block of four with sheet number 028, the stamps unmounted o.g. with the top selvedge sensibly reinforced.  The usual flaws occur with the very scarce HPFs #12a and c, but also the spectacular 'Legs of Man' flaw in the left value tablet of #11.  On this printing only, with a handful known, this being the only positional piece we have seen.  SG 114a
