Default Illegal Stamps in Exhibits at the New York 2016 World Stamp Show

What about the 'reproductions' that are fooling many younger
collectors - promoted BY the Postal 'Authorities' ????

Here, the colour and the crosshatch background to the KGV head 'give

solid postally needed issues [well most are], the rest for the bulk
wallpaper of the last 35.
