1910 Prepared for use but not issued 2d. Tyrian plum, colour trial in red-purple, large part original gum, tiny thin spots at top and lower-right. B.P.A. Certificate (2016) stating "a little toned", which in our opinion is unnecessarily harsh. A good example of this very rare colour trial of which only a handful exist in private hands.
