Where did you find this, the NvPH does not say anything abiut proofs, as far as I could see. Jan-Simon Login to Like this post www.pagowirense.nl/stamps/

Indie, Curacao, Suriname" by J.L. van Dieten. (My edition is dated 1966, there are newer editions available.) It lists 12 colour proofs of this value: all possible combinations of blue, pale brown, lilac or black ink, with grey, orange, or green paper. Jan Login to Like this post
