Austria 1935 question
In the Austrian 1935 costume stamps, there are two varieties of the 6g blue. A scan can be seen at : http://www.gothicstamps.com/inventory/images/35365.jpg 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. Blair |

It is fairly obvious to the naked eye (assuming reasonable eyesight) when you know what to look for. I would agree that glasses help. 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? 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. See http://www.italianstamps.co.uk/austria/017043.jpg -- Tony Clayton |
