The transparent thin paper are scarce, in this post there is the 1953 3½d in Carmine-Red and the 6½d in Orange. The paper is slightly stiff yet has a thin transparent appearance; the watermark of both stamps and the obverse of the stamps can be clearly seen from the reverse; both blocks are mint unhinged.

Next year the expo will be held in London for 7 days, lucky people, ours only has a lifespan of 4 days, and they have a centre specifically for stamp fairs and expositions.
