The Sideface Issues
1882-1900 Second Issue
1895-97 Perf. 11 x 10
A group of mint and used written up on an exhibition page including ½d. black with mint and used single examples and a mint corner block of four with paper folder resulting in dramatic misperforation, 1d. rose used single and pairs (2) highlighting early use; chiefly fine and rare

Note: Both Stanley Gibbons and Campbell Paterson treat this perforation as a sub-branch of perf. 10 x 11. However it is clearly a separate and earlier issue and must be distinguished on its own, even though it is only relevant to the halfpenny, penny and sixpenny values. See the New Zealand Stamp Collector, 95:2 (June 2015), p.36
