Austria 1935 question
 

In the Austrian 1935 costume stamps, there are two varieties of the 6g
blue.
A scan can be seen at :

The reingraved stamp had one ear changed, I am told.

Could anyone please tell me how to tell one from the other?
A larger picture wouls be appreciated.

Thank You.

Many thanks to Victor , Rodney and Ryan.
No wonder you need a 600 dpi scan to see it.

By the way, am I the only one who sees two different shades
between the two 6g stamps (see my link above), even though
Michel calls both stamps lilac-ultramarine?

It is fairly obvious to the naked eye (assuming reasonable eyesight)
when you know what to look for. I would agree that glasses help.

I have both types in mint and used.

The shade of one stamp is slightly different from that of the other three,
which look the
same blue to me. I suspect it is simply a matter of minor variations in the
printing process rather than a particular type-shade relationship.

For Rodney and the others who are interested,
here is my new image to show the difference.
