I have acquired a few of these - years 1934-35, plus a Social Security 10/- (1957-58)  |

The OP's stamp is Barefoot & Hall #42, by chance the most valuable in a long string of denominations from 1d. to £4. The 1986 catalog value was £10. |

OP stands for Original Post. He was referring to the original post of this thread, by Phil. |

I will, but remember they are 1986 catalog values.
Left to right:
1d. == #10, £1
5/- == #18, £2.50
10s. == #34, £3.50
10/- == #66, £3.50 |

Thanks Doug - greatly appreciated.
Looking at sets in our local on-line auction site they seem to average about £1.10 each (e.g. Wages Tax - 1938 Employment Revenues 12 values, pen cancelled stamps starting at £14).
As usual, the basic stamps catalogue values doesn't seem to mean a lot (unless you are really desperate to buy the odd stamp from a dealer).
