The Crown Agents in their letter 10th March 1883 (C.A. vol 9, p. 85) tell us the colours to use for the ½d., 1d., and 2½d. Postage Stamps, i.e. International Colours [green, red and blue], These are the only duties we are concerned with as the other duties 4d., 6d. and 1/- are litho stamps and if they are indented again we had better recommend surface stamps with appropriate colours". A marvellous and unique piece.rnProvenance: RL, Bermuda, 27 Jan 1978, lot 1498.
