Latest New Machin Definitive Stamp, New list, and Checklist update.

No sooner had we been discussing just how many (or how few) M17L Machin definitives are still to appear this year, than another one has become available. This time it's the 1st class Signed For, which is on SBP2, and was printed 31/05/2017



This has been added to our webshop as 2991.7, and cylinder blocks, date blocks and gutter pairs are available.

Our Checklist of Machin Security Stamps has been updated as well.
All new editions can be obtained from Dropbox.

  1. Hi Ian
    Many thanks for printing this up to date list. I find it hard to keep up to date and it has come in very handy.

  2. 1917 Prestige booklet - even more proof the booklet designers are not stamp collectors or have the Royal Mail's bank balance in mind - 8 small poppy stamps??!! and not a Machin in sight; another booklet that some won't need to purchase.
