MAHATMA GANDHI WAS THE FIRST INDIAN HONOURED WITH POSTAL STAMP -
The 15th August 1948, the 1st Anniversary of India's Independence was commemorated by issuing postage stamps on "Mahatma Gandhiji" in 4 denominations viz., 1½ as. 3½ as., 12as. and 10 Rupees. The first 3 lower values are in Sepia-brown (Brown), Purple- blue (Violet), Dark-green (Grey -green) respectively. The high value 10 Rupees stamp is in Grey with a Reddish-brown background (Purple-brown and lake). All these stamps were printed in sheets of 50 in 5 rows of 10 stamps each with all around and perforated 11½ mm. The top margin has a long inscription extending on 8 stamps, from 2nd to 9th reading "IMRESSION COURVOISER S.A., LA CHAUX - DE - FONDS (SUISSE)". In the bottom margin under the 5th stamp is running number of the sheet and underneath the last stamp is the control number.-

the whole equipment sucks, thats all any flesh presser does is blame the different social gathering for complications, as a substitute of working at the same time to DO THEIR interest they only argue and attempt to play to the folk for votes. Democrats and Republicans are the two in charge and if anyone thinks that it would be to any extent further constructive if it grew to become right into a Dem Prez with a Rep or Dem Congress youre stupid. Cuz the two way you will desire to get a minimum of a few votes from the different social gathering to bypass a invoice.
