Identifying King George VI Stamps
Bermuda 12/6 First Three Printings

by Eirc Yendall

 
Attached are scans of the first three printings from my collection. I am not satisfied with the absolute colours produced by my scanner but they are true to relative differences in colour between the stamps. The high magnification images show more or less equal pitting on the first two printings and much less, or much less apparent, pitting on the third. The gum on my 2nd printing is less brown but I would not call it "clear", just less toned.
November, 1937 Pitting on 11/1937 issue.
July 1938 Pitting on 7/1938 issue.
August, 1938 Pitting on 8/1938 issue.
