1850-57 QV Half-Lengths Thomas Ham Printings Third State of the Dies (Framelines Added) 2d olive-grey SG 10a, margins just clear -
at upper-right - to large with fragments of the adjoining units at left & right, light Butterfly '15' cancel of Geelong, Cat £250. Superb. Ex Rodney Perry and 'Dubois' Part III: sold for SFr122. The fragments of the adjoining units illustrate the
absurdly close laying-down of the individual transfers and why examples with full margins are rarely seen, and especially of this quality.

1882-84 QV Bell & Naish Designs V/Crown Watermark '33' 1d green Perf 12½ as SG 208 but Compound Perf 13x12½ block of 4, light
Echuca '40' duplex of SE27/83, minor central perf reinforcing, a few uneven perfs. Unlisted by Gibbons. RPSV Certificate (2024). Geoff Kellow states at page 196 that "Perforation was almost exclusively by the comb perf 12½ machines. The exception is
a small quantity single line perf 12", and does not record the use of any Perf 13 machine after 1880, stating at page 25 that "after 1880 up to Federation the situation was fairly simple - three comb machines gauging 12¼-12½ x 12¼-12¾ for the
normal-size stamps, and two single line machines gauging 12¼-12½ for the large format stamps" (all of which Gibbons list as Perf 12½). However, the paper on which this stamp is printed did not arrive in Melbourne until July 1882, and the horizontal
rows here measure Perf 13 exactly. (Image1) (Image2)

since at least 2007 - sold at our auction of 12.5.2007 for $3105 (Sale 128 Lot 575). (Image1) (Image2)
