    1840/51: 1d. reds, a nicely-mounted collection on Godden pages, with over forty items, almost exclusively four-margin stamps and displaying a range of shades, beginning with a small group printed from black plates, later printings including both Maltese Cross and later 1844-type cancellations, several scarce and superbly-cancelled multiples including three strips of three, three strips or blocks of four, two strips and one block of six, one on particularly deeply blued paper (light horizontal crease), striking block of twelve with 1844-type cancellation, single lettered PA showing partial "PRICE..." sheet margin inscription, the occasional fault, but a chiefly select group of neatly-cancelled and fresh examples.
