7¢ Bistre 2L10

A minor defective transfer of the LL corner with the vertical and bottom lines of the LNB almost missing at the corner. There is also some minor retouching with the bottom line of the LNB, the top line of the RNB and possibly parts of the bottom frame all retouched.

Leo's Notes

Minor defective transfer

  • The vertical and bottom lines of the LNB are almost missing at the corner where they meet, and the rest of the vertical line is very thin. The left and bottom frames are slightly thinner
    than normal at the corner where they meet.

Retouch (not in Marler).

  • The bottom line of the LNB is thick except at the LL corner.
  • The top of the RNB is very thick.
  • The bottom frame was likely retouched because it is solid and thick.

Guideline

  • Faint vertical guideline in the top margin and the top right part of the left crown.
  • Vertical guideline in the top of the right member, the diagonal member, and the middle of the left member of the N.
  • Vertical guideline in left inner oval opposite the C and leaf 4, into leaf 1.
  • Vertical guideline in the LNB at the right edge of the 7. A second faint guideline goes from the right side of the 7 into the bottom margin.
