Removed KGVI material
Does anybody know why the KGVI coronation material has been removed from the display section? Robin Restall had put dozens of sheets on it (perhaps hundreds).

Re: Perforation question
Difficult to be sure from your photo but it looks like an encroachment to me. Some encroachments are very good and some dealers try to sell them as unique so be careful. Most encroachments are easy to spot as the perforations in the bottom margin are not in line with the rest of the perforations or ...

Re: Have you seen a missing watermark?
Thanks Ron. I have most of Robin's E8R notes and books and like you I had never heard of Ward until I found a copy in Robin's E8R library. Happy to scan if you would like to read it. More of a short pamphlet than a book! Regards Barry

Have you seen a missing watermark?
I was looking at an old reference book - 'The postage stamps of King Edward VIII' by W. Ward, circa 1940s I believe, and he mentions 'Errors of watermarks'. Specifically without an 'E' and with a double 'E'! In all my years of collecting KE8 I have never seen such material nor any reference to such ...

Cylinder numbers and dates when used
I am trying to get an understanding across all four values of the E8R sheet stamps of what E8R cylinder numbers were put into service when. Would you have a look at any used stamps on cover that have the selvage still attached that show the cylinder number. If you find any please let me know. If I r...

Label for sheet stamps
Can anybody throw any light on the attached label? I believe it to be either a label from a packet/parcel of sheet stamps sent from the printers to the Post Office distribution centre (wherever that might be) or, more likely, a label used by the Post Office to send sheet stamps out to individual Pos...
