8d. orange, SF-TF vertical pair with wing margin, large part original gum. The is a vertical row of line perfs. in the wing margin, well away from the stamps. Exceptionally fresh appearance. A desirable pair. Photo

The perforation on some of the wing margins on this 8d. value have been a subject for debate; This pair clearly shows an extra line of perforation added, they are at a slight angle and stop before the top of SF. It would appear that these were, on occasion, added by the printers
