Phosphor cylinder numbers

Post by earsathome »

Hello All,

I have a copy of the March 1976 85p folded counter booklet spec. UFB3, perforation type p with ink cylinder 3 dot but with no phosphor cylinder number.
Is this unusual?

I cannot find a listing of an example with no phos. cyl. I have examined it closely under uv lamp and with a magnifying glass but no sign of phos. cyl.

I have an e perf. example of the cylinder 3 dot in which the P28 is clearly
visible.
Can anyone help with this?
Thanks and regards.
Ron.

Ron,

I have looked in my copy of the Bookmark Catalogue (published by the GBDSBSC) and in the latest MCC catalogue and neither lists this booklet without the phos. cyl. I have also scanned through the Bookmark Journal and can not find any report of it before. Though many 'finds' never find their way into either the Bookmark Catalogue or Journal.

Hello Barry and welcome to the list.
Thanks for the response and for taking the trouble to check the catalogue.
I have the list published by Mike Holt of booklets and panes and he does not mention it there.
I will just have to add it to the 'unusual' section of the collection.
Regards
Ron.
