A request from a Reader….

I happen to have this stamp, an unused SG334, the 1951 Geological Survey of India 2 As Stegdon Ganesa with one corner misprinted. I guess there must be 3 more stamps in existence with this missing color feature as a piece of paper or debris must have accidently got in the way of the print during the printing process.It would be nice if any one could try to locate the other 3 stamps for me . This may be interesting for those collecting flaws and errors on Indian stamps… Please contact me in this regard.
