Queen Elizabeth Machin Booklets - 50p Folded

To purchase stamps see notes on Stamp index page. I am currently adding scans of these booklets.

Perforations: Good perf means almost equal perfs on both sides and if there is no trace of a perf I describe it as trimmed straight. Just OK means that in my opinion there are sufficient perforations, do ask for a scan if it is important to you. Hopefully any other descriptions are clear as being between these descriptions.

FB53	UMFB47	EDM00479	€ 10 (£6.29)
Aircraft No 1. Armstrong and de Havilland. Perf Shift to left. The shift is only about one perforation and does not give a 15p right narrow band as the listed pane variation has, however the shift doe put the 3mm band on to the perf - one of the risks of using a new issue service. I also got this twice as booklet and a Machin variation. Selling below cost. Average perfs.

Aircraft No 1. Armstrong and de Havilland. Perf Shift to left. The shift is only about one perforation and does not give a 15p right narrow band as the listed pane variation has, however the shift doe put the 3mm band on to the perf - one of the risks of using a new issue service. I also got this twice as booklet and a Machin variation. Selling a little higher as it has good perfs.
