I just received some 6c and 12.5c Large Queens that I had purchased last week. Among them, was a 6c dark brown on paper 7, the thin ivory paper. I have replaced the original photo of this paper with this stamp, as I believe it shows the characteristics of this paper better than the old scan.
In addition, I have placed a side by side comparison scan of papers 7, 2, 10, 6 and 4 at the end of the post.
