1900-01 Llandovery Falls 1d. Issue. 1899 Essays. Small "Postage" size in brown with traces of the design around "jamaica" highlighted in Chinese white, affixed to card (115x90mm.) lettered "A" and dated "June 6th. 99. PhotoNote: The Governor of Jamaica wrote to the Crown Agents that as the Privy Council had agreed to the adoption of the Imperial Penny Postage rate he would like a new one penny stamp, different from all others in use. He forwarded three scenic photographs, including Llandovery Falls, for De La Rue's consideration, and which were forwarded by the Crown Agents on 4 May requesting designs. De La Rue chose the waterfall view and on 6 June submitted design A in postage size and B in fiscal size for recess printing, recommending B as complying with the Governor's request. As the stamp was required for postage and revenue purposes, and fugitive inks are only available for letterpress printing, they engraved one of the other views in soft steel and lettered it C. This was submitted but was not considered satisfactory. The Governor agreed that design B by recess was advisable though called for "1899" and "Llandovery Falls" to be incorporated in the design. Subsequently on 3 November the words "ONE PENNY" were substituted for "1899" as requested, and on 18 November the Crown Agents authorised the engraving as essay B(Image1)
