Abstract: Issue X was printed in multicolours using the same set of four colours for values 3c, 4c, 10c and 14c, but a different set of four colours for the 25c value. The stamp of issue Y was also printed in multicolours using four different colours. Colour checks in the form of coloured discs 3mm in diameter are seen in the right hand margin, next to the last stamp of the bottom row, in each Pane, of all values, in issues X and Y. 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. All values of both issues are of the horizontal format. Cumulative totals of progressive columns of stamps are seen in top and bottom margins, on all Panes, of all values, printed in black in issue X and printed in the top colour of the colour checks, in issue Y.
