SAINT HELENA 1970 (VARIETY) 4D DICKENS CENTENARY MISSING YELLOW
4d Charles Dickens Death Centenary corner marginal single, chalk-surfaced paper, PVA gum, missing yellow (affecting Mr Pickwick's background). Very scarce. Just one pane of 30 numbered '1850' discovered. Fresh and fine. Mint never hinged. SG249b; SC232var
Note: the missing yellow error emanates from stock on chalk-surfaced paper with PVA gum sent to St Helena which contrasts to Crown Agents (London) supplies on shiny unsurfaced paper with gum arabic
