A recent auction buy.
I had not seen this series before. I am not sure if i have them in the correct order.
Can anybody add any info to these?

Looking at what i have in my collection it should be clean and not toned, i have both mint & used with both showing the same paper colour, you may have an unwatermarked reprint to match it to.
Cheers

Re: 6d dull lilac imperf on large star wmk
Yes Ross there is two. I never put the other one up at it is a bit grubby and needs a bath but having another re look at them they appear to fit together as a rejoined pair. Think this now adds to them, they will look good on a page! I have scanned and brightened them up for a better look. star2.jpg

Re: 6d dull lilac imperf on large star wmk
Talking with several specialists of Tasmania and by private communication of the specialists on this board the star wmk copies I have would appear genuine. Can others provide scans of other known copies please. Dave

Re: 6d dull lilac imperf on large star wmk
Thanks David
So i have either a wmk forgery or a genuine copy.
Do you or does anybody have a 6d on star wmk which can be loaded up to compare colour etc.
Provenance of the above copy came from the Dr. James Kyle C.B.E., F.R.C.S., F.R.P.S Collection.

6d dull lilac imperf on large star wmk
In a recent arrival of a Tasmania collection there was 2 x 6d dull lilac, imperf, on large star wmk. Call me a dreamer but apart from the obvious forgery aspect does anybody know if the 6d on large star mentioned in notes in SG below sg18 actually had CANCELLED on them or were they released mint?

Re: Private separations on Chalons
A recent buy 1863-71 6d grey-lilac Oblique roulette approx 8 [SG 55]. Will put up a better scan when I get it.
I just wonder if it’s a forgery?
Your thoughts thanks panel.

Jeff Not to confuse this more but when you say "The last vertical row has been missed" i presume you mean the far right and not the left? if so then put me down for P.11x11x11x11.8. Dave

Re: Pictorial issues printed in Melbourne
I think the paper size covered 4 panes so two plates [pairs] were done in a single opperation then turned and another pair done. Dave

Re: Pictorial issues printed in Melbourne
One would think it would be easier to just pre cut the paper prior to printing rather than chance smudging the wet ink upon turning the sheet and re feeding it into the machine.

Garrett Station Name Flaws
In a recent lot of Garretts i have brought there was the below HOBART with a short RT has this been recorded or seen before? Nice lower left frame break which may help to plate this. In Owen Ingles full sheet of the 9d this frame break is not evident.
