1902 King Edward V11 1d Trial stamp printed by Bruckman of Munich German

THEIR HISTORY IS AS FOLLOWS: They were produced almost 100 years ago in 1913! And then re-discovered 7 years ago in an auction in Germany. These British King Edward VII trial 1d stamps were printed in deep blue, imperforated and on gummed paper in small sheets of 25 with wide margins. Bruckman of Munich, the German printers, wanted to tender for the contracts to produce British stamps on their new Heidelberg machines. They used Edward VII stamps during the reign of King George V to protect the Post Office revenue so they would not be used for postage – and additionally these ‘sample stamps’ were produced slightly oversize also to detract from possible usage.
