For interest to the flyspeckers.
ASC F27o 1.1/2d KGV 1st May 1924
wmk 2, small OS puncture.
"No top to Crown" variety
Cancelled Bunbury Western Australia 1926

CV 25c

I would be interested if it appears in Gibbons.

Sorry, Rodney: it appears Gibbons doesn't list any of the No top to
crown varieties, with or wihout the OS puncture

Thanks a lot Tony,
I was wondering just how deep SG went.
Cheers.

I don't know which SG Tony used. This variety indeed doesn't appear in
Commonwealth Part 1 AFAICS but there are single-country Commonwealth
cats that may go deeper. They are rather rare though, and I've never
had one to examine other than GB Concise, which certainly adds
varieties to those in Commonwealth.

Thanks Chris,
I think that it is appropriate they meet halfway with the ACS
It would be unreasonable to expect Gibbons to go any deeper.

I have adopted the regime to classify with Gibbons,
with sub classification with ACS

So this stamp would be SG77[F27o]

I was indeed using Gibbons Part 1. I don't know how deeply the
Gibbons Australia volume goes, but the India volume, as if affects the
Indian States at least, seems to be no more than a reprint of the Part
1 listings.

I did check my ancient (1947) copy of Rosenblum. He acknowledges the
existence of the missing top to crown on this stamp, and the perf OS,
but doesn't offer values.

I think you'd need to go to the ACSC for something more definitive. I
gather the new Postage Dues volume of the ACSC is due for release
'soon', and I might lash out and buy that. But for the rest ...
flyspecking Geo V Heads doesn't do anything for me, I'm afraid.

If you are determined to flyspeck, I would have thought TravAncore was
the mother lode.

Who needs literature? You, R. Nair, will write the definitive work on
the 1 Chuckram plate!

People who do that Tony, begin in their mid thirties, or there abouts,
I am so old they date me by growth rings.
I am content fiddle faddling around Cinderellas and "what have you's"
