used The superb study (11,240) of these plates, housed in five albums, the basis of the book "The Plating of Alphabet III" by Dr. Wiggins and G.C. Tonna, the stamps arranged by check letters, AA-TL, with an example of each from almost every plate. Of the 11,520 "possibilities", 11,180 are represented and there are 60 duplicates, mostly marked shades; virtually every stamp is picked for lightness of cancellation; 42 plates are complete; plates 25, 26 and 63 lack one position; plate 22 lacks sixty-six positions; plate 64 lacks one hundred positions and plate 65 lacks one hundred and seventy-one positions; an outstanding lot, S.G. Spec. #90,310+.
