I just thought I would share the three different views of the Dag Hammerskold stamp from 1962.

There are at least three versions, I think the one with the all white on the left side was the first stamp on the left side of the sheet when they are printed.

The last time I looked they are all worth the same low price.

Thanks for the info on the varities! That's what I like to see here on the forum--others passing on info like this so that we can learn without the hours and hours of reading and looking thru catalogues.

Mkfarm,
You are correct in placement of the third variety, the reason for the errors are because alignment was shifted when the yellow was applied. Here is a example to show this. Look all the way to the right and you can see the margin was inked also.
