Buy yourself a Christmas present.

Are you like me, and have no friends?
This Christmas buy your own Christmas present
and leave under your little tree.

Imagine the surprise when you open it up!
Solitaire will never be the same again

Imagine owning:
The 1861 "Woodblock error" - From the Cape of Good Hope
The 1851 13 cent "Missionary" - From Hawaii
The 1854 "Inverted Head of Queen Victoria" - From India
The 1855 3 Skilling-banco "error of color" - From Sweden
The 1851 2 reales "True Blue Error" - From Spain
The 1843 90 reis "Bulls Eye" - From Brazil
The 1882 5 candarin "Wide Setting" - From China

The 1889 1 Chuckram tete-beche pair of Travancore
The 1923 1 Anna brown-red of Barwani ...

Hey!
I like your twist.

Perhaps we should get together and design a new model of
"Snakes and Ladders" with bent on the subcontinent.
Land on the Travancore 1 chuckram postal stationery in Ultramarine,
and it's up the ladder, land on the cash coupon from Bundi and its down the
snake.
"eating Tim Tam's whilst handling the tweezers"...miss a turn.
Trying to locate a Bhor on European laid paper......forfeit the game.

The "error" in this case refers to the die.
hence 2

"Sir F. A. Rien"
The 1861 "Woodblock error" - From the Cape of Good Hope
Should be plural - there are two, but the better are the ones in opposing
colours [so four?].
