 1d red Smooth Paper ACSC 71 (SG 21c) Extreme 'Tin-Shed' Flaws with loss of large elements of the design, well-centred, evenly trimmed
perfs at top, indistinct machine cancel. Tin-Shed Flaws - so-called to describe the primitive printing conditions at the King's Warehouse, Melbourne - result from gum adhering to the print-side of the paper, which is then washed away along with parts
of the design when soaked. They are described in the ACSC at p51, but not separately listed.

future, we expect their true scarcity will start to be appreciated]
