Frum the BRAKING BARIERS (A Senteenery of Grate Brittish Spede Rekords) FDeeCee... the Great British PHILALETIC Bureau shows a certain lack of quality control.

Awesome typo!

Looks like a steering wheel in the middle? The middle bars are in the shape of St. Andrew's cross, so I get that, but what is with the wheel?

The regular First Day of issue postmark is not the same as for the Prestige Booklet but still shows the same spelling mistake, at least according to SG Concise it does !!

That must be rare....

Steering wheel...cars...speed...records

The St. Andrew's cross is purely coincidental as Scotland has nothing to do with speed...er...well, there was Donald Campbell, Jackie Stewart, Jim Clark, Richard Noble, Dario Franchitti and probably a few more who were and are pretty fast

Nah ... "philaletics" is a previously unpublished book by L Ron Hubbard.

I suppose this is almost a spelling error... I can see why this meter mark machine IS an entry level one!
