Item description:

From Tonga 1984 Marine Life set.

Around 1984 Tonga introduced progressive proof tabs into the printing process of its stamps.
Instead of having blank gutters, Tonga shows 5 different progressive proof tabs in each sheet of stamps, with each proof tab showing how the stamp looked at a different stage of the printing process.

For instance, proof tab 1 usually shows how the stamp looked when the first color yellow was done.
The proof tab shows the same picture/design as the issued stamps, but is only yellow, and is also missing the words and values.

Proof tab 2 is usually blue, the second color used in the printing process.

Proof tab     1  2     shows what the stamp looked like when both yellow and blue were mixed together, giving the result of a greenish/yellow proof.

Proof tab 3 is usually red which was the third color done.

Proof tab  1   2   3    always shows the stamp in its finished colors after the red is mixed with the blue and yellow – except black is not yet done.   This progressive proof looks like the issued stamps but is missing black still.

Many collectors and exhibitors are finding that a strip with the proof tab in the middle is a different way to show an item in their collection or exhibit.   Very few people thought to collect these strips in this format.

Unless otherwise advised in the item description, airmail postage and firm packing is US$2.80 to anywhere in the world.   More than one small item (such as stamps) will go together in the same envelope for the one lot of postage.

Where the items to be posted are larger (such as covers or large stamp blocks or artwork), then the cost of postage is shown in the item description.   But US$2.80 is the minimum cost to anywhere in the world except for Australia where the cost is US$1.50.

IMPORTANT NOTE - those wishing to pay by PayPal must add 4% to the total.

IMPORTANT NOTE - for buyers in China, India, Russia and Romania who pay by PayPal, REGISTRATION is now compulsory.    Too many unregistered letters have somehow gotten lost or stolen when sent to these high risk countries and paypal forces me to refund payment to the buyers even though I have posted their letters. If you pay by moneybookers then registration is not compulsory.
