Head and frame essays in red on thick glazed card, the adjacent essays with QV head very similar to that used for the issued Perkins Bacon 1d stamps, both with frame and corner squares, the right essay with turned side panels virtually identical to those in the dummy stamps printed by Charles Skipper & East, 46x28mm. A rare, possibly unique, pair of essays possibly adapted from an earlier trial plate, previously believed to be by Perkins Bacon but more probably by Charles Skipper & East. Photo included on Front Cover.
