Summary: This page contains a letter from J Smith & Co to J. Dickinson Ld. regarding an order for Indore State Stamps. The letter discusses concerns about overprinting and spoilage due to uneven shrinkage of wet paper, and offers to reduce the extra price for overprinting by 50% if the results are better than anticipated. The cost of blocks is included in the price.
