dc.description.abstract | The principal aim of this study is to establish with documented proof the number of printings in chronological order, and record the known Philatelic Gems of the controversial 1/2d Malta Queen Victoria Yellow. It is nearly impossible to be dogmatic on the interpretation of the various shades, as no two persons will see these difficult shades alike. In differentiating between shades, one has to remember that: 1/ the ink was 'fugitive', 2/ dirt and over inking accumulated on the rollers, giving the impression of muddy appearance, 3/ with used copies, bleaching has taken place, especially when one remembers that the Malta water contains a very high percentage of calcium and chlorine, and this must have faded the colour considerably. | en_GB |
