Not really an Australian collector 22c
I have bought a few for investment, but the rest are not solid
and my scans of the bridges are poor.
Something to look into though.

Just looking at them, I would have picked them the other way around.

Funny how the conventional screening is more pleasing to my eye...you'd think it would offer less "resolution" and suffer because of it.

I realize that perceptions may differ on this point.

Hi
Cjd I totally agree, they are much more pleasant to view.

Argentina has many stamps that have been printed in more than one printing system.
The left stamp was printed in photogravure and the right in offset-litho :

The following Nigerian stamps were printed by the Nigerian Security Printing & Minting Co. Limited, Lagos as part of a definitive set between 1973 - 1980.

As per Scott in both lithography and photogravure versions
and colour varieties.

Scott 294 offset




Scott 294b photogravure




Scott 294a emerald fields photo?



Dark emerald below



This one appears to be printed via photogravure but the fields are
neither emerald nor yellow green as listed in Scotts.

Hi Jorge, I really enjoy the variety you have posted here.
Searching for stamps with different printing techniques, printers, etc
is a a major enjoyment for me,

I've been trying to find some more examples myself but can't find any
more.

Since you are also interested in the same stuff perhaps you might like
checking out this site http://www.stampprinters.info/dummystamps.htm
Dummy Stamps Newsletter.

It is mainly about testing labels from different printers,
mostly British but also some others.
