This post is meant to be a guide for buying this rare issue.

If you see one for sale of this issue described with faults, do not hesitate to buy it on such condition since that overprint was applied on waste sheets prepared to be destroyed.

These remaing sheets were overpriwere stucked to each other and had to be previuosly washed before overprinted.

Apart from the rush due to the need of more stamps quicly, you can imagine that there was no notion of Philately among the native employers in charge of this delicate operation of removing the sheets stuckednted due to lack of stamps to supply the Local Post Office Agencies.

Due to tropical climate most sheets , causing most of the times bends, thins and lack of ink in the embossing of the stamps.

So take in consideration those facts before evaluating and buying any stamp from this issue.

Catalogue prices are for stamps with small faults. Perfect stamps are worth more.
