Foreign Bill: 1890 '40/ FORTY CENTS' on 1r 20 violet and Mauve,
Second of Exchange, the locally surcharged ERROR OF COLOUR,
cancelled with company chop in violet, and dated 25/3/91 in
manuscript. The rarest stamp of the entire issue, emanating from a
small batch of 1r20 value supplied to the colony with the value
printed in mauve rather than the intended green, of which Crofton
and Jones state only 'a small portion' of which were then
surcharged, describing it as 'of considerable rarity'. Rounded
corner at upper right, still very fine and far above average for
this fascinating and elusive stamp, missing from the vast majority
of collections of the issue

Stamp Duty: 1892 "50 cents" on 1r lilac, two examples, one of each

described by Crofton & Jones as 'considerably rarer'.) Each fine

have had a very low survival rate, the two types seldom offered as

fifteen values, used upper halves, each with clear part strike of

creased, 14r4a and 28r8a with unobtrusive internal defects),
nevertheless a very good range, lacking only the 2r8a Die II, and
with three different Colombo types represented (Type I on 2r8a,
14r4a, 28r8a, Type III on 1r, 2r8a, 10r Die I, others Type II).
Generally well above average, and a difficult series to assemble.
