1951 Postage Dues 4d Grey green D6

A Batch of some 500 sheets of the 4d Grey green were overprinted on an older version of the GB 4d Postage Due and distributed to the main Offices of
GWELO and FORT VICTORIA. They in turn sent supplies to their sub Post Offices.

The D6 was only available at such Offices from the First Day of Issue on
1 October 1951. When their availability became known there was an outcry of
indignation by the Philatelic community and the D6 was withdrawn from sale and an
unknown quantity of sheets were destroyed.

Whilst the October 1944 6d aerogramme H&G 1 was in use an order to replenish the stock was placed in England and that particular version
H&G 3 was issued on the 25th March 1947.
Prior to the arrival of that new stock, the supply of the locally produced version rapidly decreased and in order to meet the public demand for aerogrammes an
  emergency printing was called for.
There was a supply of a Great Britain stampless aerogramme with a Control No 51-5829 on the lower part of its side panel
For reasons unknown, the Postal authority decided to modify the foregoing air letter by imprinting a facsimile of the current
KGVI 6d definitive onto the form . Around a dozen used copies recorded & rated as one of the World’s rarest Aerogrammes
