Each of the three denominations has the "broken mainmast" variety, and there is an additional pair of the 1-1/2d with a "torn flag" variety. While not listed in Scott catalogue, these are embraced by Gibbons and listed as SG 97a, 98a, 99a and 99b. Each stamp has a Light Hinge and we noted (for the record) that the 1d has very acidic gum (brown, patterned) and a corner crease. Total 2018 Stanley Gibbons £370.00 =
