The postmaster explains, in this letter, that he is sending the new stamps, which are reprints of the 1911/12 definitives - the English stamps on the new Script CA watermark paper which was only introduced in 1921. The French stamps were reprinted on the existing RF paper. 18 August 1921 is the earliest recorded use of the reprints. ("JGI" collection)
