Great Britain - Four Kings

Until 31 December 1910 High Values were printed by De La Rue. The contract for printing the stamps was put to out tender by the Post Office in an attempt to reduce costs. Harrison & Son, who had never printed postage stamps before, won the contract to print the single coloured stamps, while the bi-coloured stamps and the high values were printed at Somerset House.
