    1861 (July): 2 d. blue, wmk. Small Star, clean-cut perf. 14 at Somerset House, the remarkable re-joined vertical pair with bold strikes of the Perkins Bacon "CANCELLED" obliterator in black, applied by favour of Perkins Bacon upon the request, in April 1861 by Ormond Hill who required copies of stamps, other than those of Great Britain for his collection. Perkins Bacon sent, in September 1861, six examples of each stamp held in stock, to Mr. Pearson Hill and asked him to forward four of the examples to Ormond Hill. The resulting fracas led to the termination of some of Perkins Bacon's Colonial contracts. Peter Jaffe's handbook records just four of the probable six examples sent, one of which is housed in the collection of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. A wonderful and choice pair, perforations trimmed at right.

    1854: Perkins Bacon Diadem Proof, from a small Plate of six impressions (2 x 3), recess printed (engraved by Frederick Heath) in a Rose Lake shade on vertically laid paper, each with waxed corners at lower left to prevent possible re-use and the value and 'Postage' erased from the transfer roller before laying down, marked "2" in manuscript at base. Rare and most attractive.rnrnNote: A.G. Rigo de Righi believed these to have been laid down in 1870 as Colour Charts for the proposed Great Britain 1870 1½d. lake definitive stamp. The Reginald M. Phillips collection at the National Postal Museum contains 12 of these Proofs in varying colours on varying types and colours of paper.
