(x) Tasmania Sideface Issues 1891 (Apr. - Aug.) perf 12 ½d. orange printed on unwatermarked paper, a lower right corner block of four, fresh and fine mint. The only examples recorded. RPSV Certificate (2010). Unlisted in Stanley Gibbons. Photo Note: There are no contemporary reports regarding the printing of this stamp on no watermark paper and this block is the only recorded example. Plate proofs are known on unwatermarked paper, however, they are crisply printed with a high level of detail surrounding the design, unlike this block, which exhibits the same characteristics as the issued stamp. In addition, a complete sheet of stamps could not be so dramatically mis-aligned during the printing process, otherwise there would be a trace of the watermark in the first unit.
