Calder's notes
Guide line a shade farther West than in Position No. 20 passes through the East side of the shading of the South East "7"; short entry on the side of the North East spandrel; dot in the West oval ornament very similar to that in Position No. 10 a shade farther East.
Kershaw's notes
27a The vertical guideline is closely adjacent to the inner frame line and the upper guide dot in the upper right of the oval.There is a vertical short transfer, with the main short transfer along the top of the stamp. The LH oval guide dot is TR inside the oval
Morel's notes
The vertical guideline at right crosses the outer right oval frame halfway between the E of Postage and the right oval, and also half way from the S and T of cents. On copies with a large right margin, a large dot can be observed on the Horizontal guideline, approx 2 mm from the left frame, left of the left oval. Vertical guideline at right just inside frame line, large guide dot at left, guide dot inside left oval.
