| I'm hoping there might be some interesting ones at the Exhibition in May. Glad you like! I have this one from New Caledonia although it seems to be paying the Zone 2. 65c Surface Air Lifted letter rate, I'm pretty sure Airmail was 70c. http://i242.photobucket.com/albums/ff131/Brads64/2013/Zone2NewCa... |

Thanks Gutters.
Can anyone explain to me why stamp 2 is such a mess at the bottom, was not sure if it was a problem with the ink or the paper?
on barry_e example the problem doesn't show.
I'll check the water lines on it as well.
