Chambon perfs. Lovely to see a strip of three!
Interesting! Just had to look up Chambon perforations. I was not aware of these, as they aren't listed in the "ordinary" Michel catalog, and may even have relegated some specimens into the stock of duplicates because of the less than perfect perforations. And they say you don't learn anything new on the web ;-)
Campbell Patterson lists it.
The ½d ($32), 1d ($19), 2d ($19), 3d ($19), 4d ($19), 6d ($28), and 8d ($32), come with that CHAMBON perforation.
Catalogue values are for mint copies, in NZ dollars.
From a brief search - not sure how reliable
They also come with a wide perf. Following scan shows narrow on left, normal in middle and wide on right.
The wide are harder to spot and really I look for the perf spacing being different.
There are also the coil stamps from the same issue which I have yet to sort out from the 400 I have of this set. Not found any missing colours yet either.
