Hello all,
Checking through my Machin booklets, I looked at SG to see what the NP 36a (For You at You) was catalogued at.
Having found that, I noticed other varieties on the imprint lines on the bottom of the back pages and this is what I found in relation to items I have.
NP 36a The well known FOR YOU AT YOU 55 instead of FOR YOU AT AGE 55 Catalogued £50
NP 38a HARRISOU & SONS instead of HARRISON Catalogue £25
NP 34b LOODON instead of LONDON Catalogued a massive £150 (Or is this in itself a misprint?)
These listings are taken from SG QEII Pre-decimal Vol 3 13th Edition.
Are these prices for real?
Even the NP 36a seems well overpriced let alone the NP 34b.
These imprint variations were not listed in the earlier catalogue I have which is the eighth edition.
In the illustration of NP 34b attached the second O of LOODON is broken in the centre.
Would that still be classed as O?
There are many varieties on actual stamps catalogued at less than what would appear to be fly-specks,
or am I just off the planet?
Cheers
Ron
