I've received some more King George V Prestige Stamp Books from Tallents House, and found that a sealed pack of 10 contains a mix of types A & B self-adhesive panes.
What experience have other collectors/dealers had?
New Issue: Concorde (GB)

Today Royal Mail has released its second new issue of 2026 to coincide with
the 50th anniversary of Concorde's first commercial flight on 21st January
1976...
Out of the packs I looked at during the London 2010 show most had NO type B panes. Only a very few packs had maybe one book with a type B pane in it. One pack I did look at had two type B pane books. So I would say type A panes were the more common type at that time.
ReplyDeleteThanks BM. Interestingly I've had people asking for type A as they couldn't find any, and I had no spare type A booklets until now.
ReplyDeleteMy earliest deliveries from Tallents House were all type B books.
The pane in the single booklet I ordered from the post office is a type B. So many different "visible changes" to the Machins - makes even an elementary collection difficult to complete, but we try.... Jim in Phoenix
