Notes;
1. If the stamp is perforated 13½ x 14¼ with large holes and the colors are dark lilac carmine and dark green, it is an Original (Scott #14). 2. If the stamp is perforated 13½ x 14¼ with large holes and the frame is a very light pinkish color, it is one of the two Berlin Reprints; the 1st Berlin Reprint is lighter and brighter than the 2nd Berlin Reprint. But without examples for com- parison, it is difficult to tell one from the other. 3. Under ultra violet light there is a very distinct difference between the Original and the Berlin Reprints. 4. If the stamp is perforated 13½ x 14¼ with small holes, it is the Leipsig Reprint. 5. If the stamp is perforated 14 x 14, it is one of the two Ham- burg Reprints which are very difficult to separate without examples for comparison. |
