1966 £1 Harrison definitive, in a curious pale impression
of the salmon-pink printing, normal for comparison.
Superb unmounted.
SG 387 and var.
Note: a contemporary typewritten note accompanies this
item, from George C. Martin and signed by him, stating
that this stamp was obtained at the Rhodesian Philatelic
Bureau, who requested his opinion and subsequently
allowed him to purchase the stamp. Apparently no further
examples had come to light by 1967. However, bearing in
mind the printing process and the effect harsh sunlight has
on such stamps, must be viewed as a curiosity only.
