Offers for specialized Machins would certainly be great especially if the varieties are identified. Thanks.

Oracle,
There are quite a few stamps from Prestige Stamp Books in that set. Going on the multiples, I suspect you have a good specialised set of the Scottish regionals including phosphor bar and paper/gum varieties. |

NSK - these are the only machins that I am aware that I have; they were part of a larger more general GB collection. I don't collect them and know little about them, so they're available if others who do collect these might want them. |

What I was suggesting is these already appear to be quite specialised.
I think the 31p type II is not there, but I suspect the stamps that appear to be multiples, in fact, are different stamps. If I am correct, that is a very good range of Scottish regionals. |

As I noted, I know little about these, didn't even realize they were the Scottish regionals. |

The lion rampant was used on Scottish regionals, a dragon on the Welsh, the triskelion on the Manx, and hand in star on the Ulster regionals. The basic ones did not have a symbol.
The 23p yellow-green stamp with the attached label with a blue lion is from a mixed-value pane from a Prestige Stamp Book. I think 'The Scots Connection.' |

Given that I have less than ten Machins in my collection and very little knowledge so far, the kinds of lots I am interested in buying would be anything from very basic stamps to stamps with perf, shade, phosphor, and other non-error varieties |
