Description: NEWFOUNDLAND 97 15c GRAY BLACK KING GEORGE V 1910 JOHN GUY ISSUE MPH CV$110 Please read the TERMS OF SALE below prior to bidding. BID WITH CONFIDENCE - SATISFACTION GUARANTEED NEWFOUNDLAND 97 15c GRAY BLACK KING GEORGE V 1910 JOHN GUY ISSUE MPH CV$110 Fifteen cent, gray black, King George V stamp from the John Guy issue of 1910, lithographed, no watermark*, perf. 12.0x12.0. Good color and appearance, well centered within balanced margins. Approximately 30% of original gum disturbed by previous hinging, hinge remnant. Very good, fault-free example of this stamp. Stamp shown is a good representative of those that are available. If the stamp received fails to meet expectations, it may be returned for a replacement or full refund. Whitehead, Morris and Company Limited of London printed the 1910 Guy issue stamps using lithographic plates provided by MacDonald and Sons, Limited of London. MacDonald and Sons, made the final lithographic plate by using multiple paper transfers of each design from ETCHED dies. This may account in large part for the overall poor quality of the images seen in this issue. Stamps were printed on medium weight and relatively soft, white wove paper with horizontal mesh, white (almost colorless) gum. This issue was produced to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the establishment at Cupers Cove (Cupids) in Conception Bay in 1610 of the second (after Jamestown in 1607) British "Plantation" in North America. Sponsored by the London and Bristol Company of England The actual "planting" of the new colony was supervised by John Guy. * MONCKTON BASTED MILLS KENT or WHITEHEAD MORRIS & Co LTD LONDON SOUTH AFRICA & EGYPT watermarks have been reported on some proofs and stamps (re. 2023 Walsh Newfoundland Specialized Stamp Catalogue) Images should provide all the information necessary to make a reasonably intelligent bid on this lot.
