I have just started collecting the Falkland Islands. Does anybody know what they mean by a sideways watermark? If so, could you post a picture of one. Thanks!

The illustrations are how the watermark looks from the front of the stamp.

It's important to pay attention to the description if using Stanley Gibbons to catalog your Falklands stamps. Some stamps will be listed as "sideways, crown to right of CA" like the one illustrated above. Some stamps will be crown to left of CA, and in some cases stamps exist both ways.
