Self Adhesive Definitive Sized Smilers - Second Issue (Oct
2006)
Six different designs, available from October 2006 and subsequently
with modified features in a number of different printings. The table
below may be helpful in identifying the various varieties. The copyright
statement originally was listed as Royal Mail Group plc 2005. This
was subsequently changed to Royal Mail Group Ltd 2005. The other
varieties relate to modifications in the die-cut perforations. Originally
without security features, subsequently with two elliptical perforations
added, one per vertical side and finally the perforating cutting dies were
modified/replaced to give the perforations a cleaner, squarer appearance.
Note of Smilers Catalogue
References (August 2014)
I have modified the Smilers Catalogue references for these sheets
effective 1 Aug 2014. I have introduced a second alpha code to
indicate the printing sequence for ease of reference.
The initial catalogue codes were CS-30a to CS-30f and these have been
revised to CS-30aa to CS-30fa with subsequent printings identified with a
modified second alpha code e.g. CS-30fb is the second printing of CS-30aa.
