Scott #109ii  1911

6¢ Prince Henry

Major Re-entry

Doubling is found in the bottoms of almost all of the letters of 'NEWFOUNDLAND POSTAGE,' mainly as fine lines and which do not show up very well here. There are marks found higher up in the 'E,' as well as doubling of the upper lines of the design.

Scott #109  1911

6¢ Prince Henry

Re-entry

A similar, but not as strong, re-entryas the above has turned up on the plate proof on this issue. From the very wide upper selvedge, it is obviously from the first row, but the exact position is still not known.

8¢ Prince George

Re-entry

Doubling is found in the upper area of the design, very similar to that of Sc. 111, seen below.

Scott #111i

9¢ Prince John

Re-entry

This plate must have been extensively reworked as almost every single copy of this stamp that I have seen shows some signs of re-entry, in particular, the top of the band of lettering. Some of these include doubling of parts of the lettering below and the framelines above. This is an especially clear example of the doubled band.

Scott #113

12¢ Duke of Connaught

Re-entry

Doubling is also found on numerous plate positions of this stamp. Many show doubling in and around the centre letters of NEWFOUNDLAND, as well as POSTAGE. This one has doubling in and around POSTAGE, as well as the top frameline.
