Chile - 1900 Waterlow printings

Mensaje por Rein »

In the 1900 definitives printed by Waterlow in England, the catalgoues distinguish two types for the lower values. As the illustrations in catalogues are usually poor it is not so easy to tell which one tis the heavy shaded beneath "Chile" version??? Eventually the higher values that only exist n ONE type should tell you!

parts of the horizontal lines are thicker when close to the Chile-ornamental tablet!

Hello

WATERLOW - 1900-1901
The stamps (engraved by Herbert Bourne) were printed in England by Waterlow & Sons.
In 1901 (1,2,5 and 10 cts.) was changed (re-engraved) the background and the shadow under word "Chile" was modified.
The paper has a sharp mesh of clear dots (grené-granulado) parallel to the axis (eje de enrollamiento).
The stamps that I have: 90% are printed on paper with vertical axis and 10% in horizontal.
At the same time, Waterlow also send stamps for telegraphs and fiscals (revenues). Also postal stationery (postcards and envelopes).

1923 - CONFERENCIA SANITARIA PANAMERICANA
These stamps were printed in Chile by Imprenta Fiscal (Gov.Printer in those years), but the die was made in England by MacDonald & Co.
They produced the image of building (Congreso Nacional) for recess printing.
Stamps were printed in offset-litho (one color) and offset-litho + recess (frame in color and black center).
Was used one of the papers that in those years were used for local printings of Presidente stamps : from the firm A.M.Peebles & Sons (England), that is thick and with noticeable "granulado" (grené/porous)

I was comparing both papers (1900 and 1923) and I'm agree with you: I think that they are very similar, maybe the same paper.

Best regards
