The first stamp of the Transvaal to be printed on a Chafford Mills watermarked paper was the Revenue 2/6d. duty in 1879.
The letter 'I' of the watermark can be seen in the unprinted border.
A reconstruction of the 'R TURNER / CHAFFORD MILLS' watermark taken from two blocks ex the printer's archives.
