 1890
essays for proposed new designs, each executed on individual piece, in black ink on yellowish tracing paper, for the ten issued denominations. Hand-illustrated by Col. Mallock, the then Director-General of Telegraphs, and each including a large 'V'
in the upper half and the Queen's portrait in the lower half. A unique group

the 'Vs' in the upper half were not proceeded with (Image)
