Message: Dear Joe, I've had a look in the library as to whether any book there can help. The only book on Baden stamps is the small one by Fred Melville in 1928. I'm afraid it doesn't mention anything about coloured fibres in the paper of the first numeral issue. All it says is that the paper for second and subsequent printings lacks the smoothness of the first supplies. Best wishes, Rex
