image 1853 Couriers Plate I Second State with Blurred Background 4d pale orange as SG 9 but on Pelure Paper, margins close to huge with a fragment of the adjoining unit at left, light BN cancel, Cat £450. Superb! [We have several times in the past noted the use of Pelure Paper in this issue but are still waiting for a comment from anybody! It's interesting that the Local Chalon 1d is listed on Pelure Paper, so there's no doubt this flimsy stock was used for Tasmanian stamps]

image 1899-1900 Engraved Pictorials black & white photo (195x160mm) with imprint 'DILSTON FALL S.SPURLING' at L/R being the design accepted for the 6d stamp SG 236. Superb! We can't guarantee that it's contemporary but it's certainly not a modern print.
