Phantom ‘R’ Variety on Cylinder 41 no dot
When the no dot panes on Cylinders
37 and 41 were created, the step and
repeat process erroneously generated
the top portion of an extra stamp at
the bottom right corner. The letter ‘R’
can be clearly identified.
This was retouched on both cylinders,
with multiple states appearing on
Cylinder 41. Phantom ‘R’ (x4) 1st Retouch (x4) 2nd Retouch (x4)
Phantom ‘R’ on the marginal rule (folded). This example has green phosphor; it is also found on sheets without phosphor.
