1854, 5c Pale Brown, Lithograph, Study Group (7). Four singles mounted on an exhibit page from the Gerhard Blank collection with block of four 5c "Estanco" recess printing, annotated to explain how the
flaw in Position 25 on the engraved plate was captured in the transfer to the lithographic stone, and also that differences in the singles prove that multiple lithographic transfers were made on one of the stones (some in strips), a fascinating
study, ex Blank and illustrated in his book (plate 31) (Image) |
