This is the stamp I referred to in the online catalogue post, alongside a normal on the right.
Maybe someone can advise whether it was printed on blued paper or if this is some sort of after dye. It would have been soaked off paper by myself and no other stamps exhibit this colour, so do not think it was a colour run.

re: Leadbeater's Possum

My first thought was that it might have been soaked off blue paper and reused because it was Uncancelled (reused because you say you soaked it and the paper wasn’t blue) It just has that look of a stamp that was dyed by bleeding color when soaked because the one pulled perforation and edges of other perfs shows white at the tips- blue paper would be blue completely through.

Definitely a blue envelope issue, left to soak for too long

Thanks for the response, I kinda thought it might be an envelope issue, guess I will file it under the curiosities folder.
Maybe they could issue the set on an animals by moonlight theme, then I would have a head start.

Thanks for sharing, Victor. It’s always fun and interesting to see pictures of color changelings. Some are really dramatic!
