highlights (image size173x143mm) on art-board, with a stamp-size photographic reproduction below and pseudonym "CROWN" at lower-left, light damp-spotting in the margin at left, mounted in a modern timber & glass frame for wall-display. Very

British. (Image1)

Plate Number '5' at lower-right as ACSC 175zd but with the plate number at lower-left), paper-fold at lower-right which has led to irregular guillotining of the sheet (and thus the preservation of the plate number), the two upper units with a few
slightly uneven perfs at top and lightly mounted, the lower units unmounted, Cat $7500+. The ACSC states that "Two examples of Plate Nos 5 & 6 have been reported", and lists all as being from the lower-left of the sheet. This is apparently a new
discovery and the only plate number '5' recorded from the lower-right corner of a sheet. (Image1) (Image2)
