An interesting Australia block from 2014 called Southern Lights. How would you describe it?  |

Neat stamps KGV Collector...like the way they are upside down to each other until you tear them apart.

Nice link.Thank you!
Yea! They are good lookers aren't they!
The mini sheet broken down into a block is how I will present this issue.
But they tell me the Northern Lights are more spectacular! |

wt1, I was being partly facetious, but partly serious, also. That is not a "head to tail" arrangement. The arrangement is "head to head." Here's what you get with a head to tail arrangement:  But that was not the effect they were going for! Still, if terms mean anything, then they should be used correctly, don't you think? |

Your missing the point of a SE-TENANT block because it can be sold where the 4 white bands are thru the center of the block . Then it can be sold as a tete beche block without the SE -TENANT part . |

We can't fall into the trap of literal translation. tęte-bęche refers to adjacent stamps printed in a differing orientations.
I have to go with floortrader on this one. |

tęte-bęche translated means "tumble"..one stamp upside down with respect to the other stamp.
