Frame 40
ST. LUCIA
from the collection of John Keegan, OBE
The second frame of St. Lucia continues with examples of the new duties and colours as well as the overprints
to meet UPU regulations. The later key plates are represented by the last Sperati forgery produced and then
the local surcharges resulting from shortages in the island with the inevitable scarce errors and varieties.
More modern issues are briefly shown concluding with the Waterlow vignette of the 1860 head to celebrate
the centenary of the first issue. This brings the display full circle.
The largest known multiple of
the 1864 (1s) orange.
An imperforate (vertically) pair of the 1876
(6d) lilac issue with local pin-perforation.
One of two known Waterlow vignette proofs
for the 1960 Stamp Centenary issue.
