213 $T2eC16R,!)oFIeKHUlsKBSUrGscjzQ~~60_12.JPG The QV Jubilee 1/2d green was issued in three inks. First a "lead green" 17 April 1900, a reformulated "zinc green" August 1900 to replace the toxic lead & then a new "organic pigment" Nov. 1900. SG Vol. 1, 16th report...

Dispatched 2 Jan 1902 and redirected within NZ. Showing distress but cost very little yet fascinating. 4d is not common at empire letter rate paying 4x 1/2oz., 2d Jubilee much more common. Empire rate from 1 Jan 1901 to NZ much later than most colonies from 25 Dec 1898 listed here https://www.gbps.o...

This is a difficult subject. In fact the SG evening last Dec. 2022 was going to be on this subject but was cancelled due to train strikes... Mike Williams (line engraved consultant) was planning to talk. Personally my experiences over 5 years (pre covid) was about 4 examples submitted to the Royal w...

Hi All,

I am selling some duplicates, mainly used Jubilees and a few line engraved.

Scans and details can be provided.

I also use the Signoscope with acceptable results so agree. However still need fluid and tray for some difficult LC T1 T2 differentiation on QV line engraved.

I can recommend home installation by : https://www.brinnicklocksmiths.co.uk/product.php/guardian_britannia_p5-35k_5000_cash_rating_with_keylock/?k=:::5509674 "Master Locksmiths Association" may help for other areas. Water proof may be more challenging! Also note size proportional to cost! ...

Hi Mike

Hello
I am interested in GBJ vols. 15 and 16. The whole run if possible, otherwise let me know which are available.
I am at most London meetings, otherwise York.
Thanks

PhilW

The picture seems to have got lost?

PhilW

Unfortunately I do not have the specialised knowledge you seek. You mention SG however and I wonder if you have queried it directly with their Catalogue Editor or member of their GB team? Am sure its worth a try.

I agree, to be the catalogue variety "white 4" they have to be white and not with some part shading ink.
And what a great example on cover

PhilW

Wiseman reports in his 'DLR Years' that the white 4s are not what he calls true plate varieties but due to print room problems in make-ready. He writes in QV context but he also studied Jubilees through KEVII. Many QV Jubilee varieties run on through KEVII. Back to white 4s: I have seen many QV 4d a...

Further to the 4 1/2d which I do not doubt the above, not all Jubilees were printed in this format. SG 16th reports (page 255) that the 320 set sheet was for 4d, 4 1/2d, 9d and 10d. I can confirm the panes are 4x5=20 for the 4d. However the 2d value is different. These were printed 240 set and issue...

Peter sounds very interesting. I have some "C8A" too but most only got certs as C8 due to "traces" of blueing. Its a tricky one. Would be something if your results were consistent for blueing traces or not. C8A is not catalogued for shades so interesting what your study comes up ...

PhilW

Peter, I will declare my interest. I collect the shades of C8 , C9 and C10-C13. The perf shades are extensive, am sure you agree. Are you a Mulready Group member ? there is postings history on this subject there. I welcome any initiatives on shade measurement systems. Some work has been done by othe...

PhilW

Graham Stockdale has examples together with similar claret and other "non catalogued" shades which he was showing to me at Stampex. He has referenced his collection to imprimaturs in plum. Am sure he would be happy to discuss any queries. (I don't have any scans sorry)
