| Abstract: | Gutter-pair "traffic lights", a printer's colour guide introduced in 1972 on British stamps as a contingency in case stamps were ever provided in sheets of 50, were withdrawn by the British Post Office after the Christmas issue of last year. The gutter is a blank strip dividing sheets of too stamps and it is here that one of the two printed guides giving the colours used appears. The Post Office has decided against sheets of 50 stamps and thus "traffic lights" have become obsolete on the gutter pairs. [excerpt] |
