Lot: 1662

Singapore 1962-66 Issue 30c. with gum arabic, a complete sheet of 100 with yellow omitted, central horizontal fold, fine. Pierron SP146MCa, £13,250; S.G. 73a, £13,000 Estimate £ 4,500-5,500 Note: The missing yellow causes subtle loss of colour from the flower petals and stems. The error on gum arabic can be readily differentiated from the error on PVA by the very obvious difference in gum colour – arabic is cream coloured while PVA is white. The error is known in an intact sheet of 100
