Auction: 9037 - The "Pierron" Collection of British Commonwealth Missing Colours
Lot: 1275

Hong Kong 1993 (12 Aug.) Hong Kong ´94 Stamp Exhibition miniature sheet with yellow and green fluorescence omitted, fine. With normal for comparison. Pierron HK1492MCa, £1,000; unlisted in S.G. Photo Estimate £ 600-800 Note: The missing yellow affects the colour of most of the buildings on the miniature sheet. Further, the title appears in magenta rather than red. The yellow blend around the Queen´s head is replaced by a faint pinkish glow due to the loss of yellow. The green fluorescence used on the country name is also lacking (although the line of yellow fluorescence is present) – however, this is only verifiable under ultra violet light.
