20cLC with ink splatters

Some of these splatters are plate varieties, others are from over-inking. I am not sure which ones these are.

Tony,

watch out for the brown fibers!!!

According to José Merlo, the brown fibers are just an chemical change due to the water in the Northern Hemisphere! The fibers probably curl differently due to the Coriolis-effect!

Rein,

The fibers are definitely IN the paper, there is no way they came from an envelope or some other extraneous source. Was this part of some experimental program? Where could they come from. I am sorry if I missed one of your posts on this.

Tony,

you missed quite some postings :)

All come from Wiggins Teape - the English paper mills where all the 1E1, 1E3a, 1E3c come from!!! - I have found stamps both PyR I and commemoratives with brown fibers from the 1936-1938 period [1E1] and the 1942-1945 period [1E3c aka Tela]....

Of course you are right that the fibers are inside the paper but they do not necessarily must have been in the paper pulp but could get into the paper at the moment the reel leaves the wire and passes cylinders [both sides of the reel] covered with felt before it gets dried and pressed fartheron ... These felt covered cylinders could have been contaminated by brown fibers from earlier runs to manufacture card board or enveloppes... The paper is wet enough to receive these fibers on either side or just one!

The stamps I have may have just a few fibers [including a few red ones!] - usually not exceeding some 5 in total per stamp - but also a considerable concentration of mainly brown fibers! Take a look a t the scans I made!

The post-war Wiggins Teape paper - the Rayado Vertical being one of them - has the same phenomenon but this time not so outstanding and the colour is GREEN!!

I do not believe the northern hemisphere water theory. As nobody had apparently seen the green fibers before - nor the blue ones in the Dutch papers of 1992 I displayed - the most plausible explanation is that nobody had looked well enough before... ;)

First the brown fibers were an European trick, now the US has joined us.... Next is Uruguay, where a briliant student of PyR I papers has discovered new properties of the 5c Moreno!!! Guillermo Sosa aka CastañoOchre

So far all the brown fibers are in papers supplied by Wiggins Teape from England!

Quite a surprise it is to find brown fibers in other papers as well!

The fibers are NOT evenly spread!

Paper without watermark! Symmetrical paper wire, direction of paper horizontal!

Hello Rein, I have some doubts with this one.
pyri020tg_v01b_r2c1_mod.jpg
May this be MI5? the other option I see is RR2 but the sun are too close (nevertheless the rays looks like quite straight to me)

Thanks

Sergio

Sergio,

the straight rays point to RR 2 and so does the rough structure as far as I can see from the scan! Both sides of the stamp should have a fluffy surface [RR2 ] whereas the front of MI 6 has a quite flat, even surface! But there is no MI 6 [Rayado Horizontal] for the 20c Toro!!

Imagen

What is characteristic for RR is the vertical distance between 2 alternate rows of the suns is 3.5cm!!! Instead of 3.0cm!!! The row inbetween [with a shift horizontally] may not be exactly in the middle which makes the diagonal rays a bit shorter (or longer!)!

RR 2 (m) or Rayos Rectos Nitidos with the direction of paper parallel to the short (m=menor) side of the stamp is the only candidate really :)

Hello Rein,
...whereas the front of MI 6 has a quite flat,...
I said MI5 but you are right MI6 is asymmetrical and orthogonal watermark.
What is characteristic for RR is the vertical distance between 2 alternate rows of the suns is 3.5cm!!!
This stamps' Height is 37mm, you can see the suns, so distance between suns looks like smaller than 3.5cm

According to Bardi's book for RR2 this stamps is m/M, but Bardi also says that ray lenght is 12.5mm for RR2 in this stamps ray are 9mm long.

Here you can find a 1200dpi scan of the back.
Thanks

Sergio,

the stamp has the direction of paper parallel to the short side of the stamp [26.5mm] so you need two stamps next to each other to be able to tell the 35mm distance between two alternate [vertical] rows!!

Rein, I've measured the distance between two consecutive rows and twice this measure is quite close to 35mm. I will check with others if these 12.5mm of each ray told in Bardi's book is a mistake.

The below picture looks like an MI5 to me

Do you agree?

Sergio,

YES!

In seeing the diagonal lines [blue by me] you do NOT need the high resolution to draw the lines!! Just project the image on your computer screen, take a screen grab and draw the lines using a programme like Paint in that screen grab! That is what I did! If you try to draw lines in the original file your eyes will NOT see the diagonals properly!
