1880 Bradbury Wilkinson QV ‘Bourne Head’ design. An IMPERFORATE
PLATE PROOF BLOCK OF FOUR of the ½d postage duty printed in brown
on thin card, subsequently affixed to thick cream card, plateable
as positions 3-4, 13-14. Attractive and very scarce. Ex Bradbury
Wilkinson & Co. Archives; Major Harold Criddle (1992); David
Underwood collection, and beautifully written up on his display
page.
Note: There appear to have been two sheets of the ½d duty printed in brown, one is deep brown on thin paper and the other is brown on thin card The deep brown on thin paper seems to have been entirely pen-cancelled before being cut up. The brown on thin card sheet which this block came from appears to exist in four formats: 1) this block mounted on thick card; 2) examples cut into multiples and singles; 3) a strip of four lightly handstamped ‘SPECIMEN’ in pink; and 4) Printer’s Samples perforated ‘SPECIMEN’ (Samuel Type B1). It is likely all types emanate from one sheet.(Item Code:T2589)
