Story of Wedgwood 3p missing phosphor

Post by earsathome »

Hello All,
Can anyone advise me if there is a way to highlight phosphor lines on a scan using either Photostudio 5.5 or PhotoStacker Pro.

I am trying to illustrate a strip from the bottom of the second pane of stamps in a £1 book of stamps and the story of Wedgwood. This is the se-tenant strip of 2½p x 2 and 3p x 2 in which the end 3p stamp is completely missing phosphor. The rest of the stamps in the pane are normal and there is no sign of anything that may have interfered with the phosphor.

If anyone can explain how this may have happened I would appreciate it.

Regards.
Ron.
