Uganda Please note that in this section, 1895 (Mar.)-96 (June), S.G. 1-53, the quality of the paper often resulted in the stamps being creased before use. Such creases are therefore not grounds for return 1896 (June) Issue inscribed "v.96.r" in violet 5(c.) to 100(c.) vertical se-tenant strip of ten comprising all values of this issue printed with Rev. Millar´s new typewriter, the 50(c.) showing "0" of "50" overprinted over "B", borders principally intact on all sides, fresh unused; a couple of creases between or through impressions, otherwise fine. An exceptionally rare and impressive se-tenant multiple. S.G. 44-53, £7,850+. Photo Estimate £ 8,000-10,000 Note. The reverse of the 60c. value is endorsed "Furnley Dec 29,96". We suggest that this may refer to Miss Fernley, who kept a shop in Seething Lane, E.C. whose obituary appeared in the "London Philatelist" in 1907
