Queen Victoria - Surface Printed Stamps

Surface-printing or typography took over from the embossed issues. As many impressions as were needed could be taken from one die and as such resulted in a cheaper form of printing. This method of printing was developed by De La Rue who took over stamp production for the remaining stamps of Victoria's reign.
