Description
Official. 1930-39 ? Type O6 opt (16mm high) group of four complete unused sheets of 84 (14x6), comprising 10ca pink, ¾ch mauve x2 (respectively Perf 12 and Perf 12½), and 4ch grey-green (red opt). A very scarce and most interesting group, which demonstrates the use of the Type O6 opt at different periods. [The 10ca and 4ch sheets are probably 1930, whereas the ¾ch Perf 12 sheet will be 1933 or later, and the Perf 12½ sheet must be 1937 or later. The two ¾ch sheets are printed from different plates of the underlying stamp, in confirmation of this.] SG O44, 45, 45e, 48 (cat £1507+)
