 1907-10 'Stamp Duty.' on Small 'PAPUA' trial overprinting from the original forme of 15 (5x3) - applied twice to each sheet of 30
of the Lithographed issues - with two full impressions on a piece of translucent magenta pelure paper (185x166mm), including No Stop after Duty [13], the space between the two impressions tapers from left to right and one impression is Inverted &
Misplaced resulting in ten Tete-Beche Pairs, tonespot at centre-left, some wrinkling and creasing typical of this flimsy paper. A rare & fascinating proof. Peter Troy had only a much smaller piece with six complete & six partial overprints - and no
tete-beche units - that sold in 2009 for $390. (Image1)

provide a certificate of authenticity so necessarily offered 'as is'. John Barefoot does not record the Large 'PAPUA' 6d with 'Stamp Duty.' Overprint. (Image1) (Image2)
