Commemorations 1994 issue - X, FIFA World Cup 1994 issue - Y

Abstract

Issues X and Y were printed in the four-colour process using the standard CMYK (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Black) process colours for each value. The progressive sheets of each value, in issues X and Y were printed in the following order: Black, Cyan, Magenta and Yellow. Colour checks in the form of coloured discs 3mm in diameter are seen in the left hand margin, next to the first stamp of the bottom row in each Pane of the 25c value of issue X. Similar colour checks are seen in the right hand margin next to the last stamp of the bottom row, in each pane, of the 5c, 9c, 14c and 20c values of issue X as well as in each Pane, of all values, of issue Y. In both cases, the colours from top to bottom, correspond to the colours used for Pane numbers, from left to right, on all Panes, of all values, in issues X and Y. [excerpt]
