Type 1, designed and printed by Dawn Graphics, Bolsover on gummed paper, line rouletted about 10, sheet borders imperforate, lower margin slightly wider giving somewhat larger stamp, sheets of 42 (40 stamps plus two blank labels arranged as 7 rows of 6 with labels 5th & 6th in top row).
Types 2 to 4, designed by Dawn Graphics(2) the organisers daughter(3) & son(4) respectively. Printed by Warwick Press, Chesterfield on gummed paper, pin perforated about 11. The two red designs printed together in sheets of 42 (7 rows of 6 with 20 of each design plus two blank labels located in 3rd & 4th positions of top row of 6). This layout produced 6 se-tenant pairs per sheet. Left hand three columns type 2, right hand three type 3. Black design printed as 1984 issue in sheets of of 42 (40 stamps plus two blank labels arranged 7x6 with labels 5th & 6th in top row of 6). Type 4 shows considerable variation in the v & inverted V shapes in the middle of the design. It appears that the original from which the stamps were printed was very faint and an attempt was made manually to strengthen this area. This led to a situation where virtually every stamp on the sheet was unique.
