"Tourist Sheets"
Fancy sheets containing a majority of imitation stamps were produced, mainly in the last decade of the 19th. century and early years of the 20th century. Many versions of Tourist Sheets were produced with the number of stamps attached ranging from approx. 50 in earlier sheets to 90 in the later sheets. The hand engraved issues: Dragons & Cherry Blossoms, were the most forged types and over the last 100+ years these sheets have been cut-up and individual forged stamps have been sold as "genuine"!
Can you spot the differences between Genuine and Non-Genuine Dragons and Cherry Blossoms?
