These three values were never produced by surface printing, but the "Postage Postage" keyplate was adopted for the new 5d value a few months later. Light crease through the three 1d essays, otherwise fine and a remarkable appendix page illustrated and discussed in "De La Rue History" by Easton (p.531, plate 32), ex De La Rue archives, 202x235mm.
