In an effort to boost stamp production following WWI to meet increased demand, the Post Office conducted one of its last flat plate experiments. This involved creating a transfer roll of ten subjects (versus the normal single-subject transfer roll), impressed into the plate at double the normal pressure and thus saving 90% of the time to create new plates. The increased pressure caused the normal Type I to show more details, including a thickened toga line and button, producing what has been labeled Type Ia. Only two plates had been issued when it became clear that flat plate printing could not compete with the faster rotary, and the experiment was discontinued. All imperforate panes were sold to the Schermack Company to be used in their Type III vending machines. This stamp is one of the keys of the Washington/Franklin series, with only an estimated 40 used stamps surviving.
