    1914 (Sept 3): GRI 4 d. on 40 pf. black & carmine, a used example with variety "4 d. for 5 d.", on white paper, cancelled by "Apia / Samoa" cds (Sept 13). See Gibbs pages 263-265 where this stamp is discussed, despite the fact that this was probably produced by the surcharger, Jimmy Ah Sue, there appears to be a very few examples surcharged thus; whilst of unofficial status still a great rarity: as Gibbs quotes from the great Robson Lowe: "My stamps are my friends, regardless of who prints them, and it is my greatest freedom to collect what I want to collect".
