Fine NH and VFNH examples of the 1938-1942 perf. 15 x 14 and 14 x 15 printings of the 1d maroon, 1.5d green, 2d red violet, and 3d blue die III through 1/- values from the 1937-1949 King George VI and Zoological Definitive series. This would be a complete set of low values, but for the fact that the type 1 1d and 2d values, as well as the 1.5d maroon are all the earlier perf. 13.5 x 14 printings. All except the 2d scarlet are NH, and of these all are VF centered, except for the three perf. 13.5 x 14 stamps and the 1d, 3d brown, and the 6d violet brown. The fine centered stamps do not represent a significant portion of the total value here.
