Sweden Scott #1585-8 (1588a) ALL ENGRAVING MISSING ERROR [January 1986 Stockholmia 86 "Stamp Collecting" and "NEW SWEDEN"; JOINT ISSUE WITH UNITED STATES Scott #2198-2201] NH VF complete booklet. All the offset printing is present, but ALL THE ENGRAVING PRINTING IS MISSING (and is NOT albino). Engraved by Sjööblom (#1585-6, 1588), Masure and Hipschen (#1587 which is the shared / common design with the U.S. stamp). Hipschen was a well-known engraver of U.S. stamps; Masure had done engraving of lettering on several U.S. stamps. Any type of error is "rare" on the tightly-controlled Swedish stamps, but this one is particularly spectacular. The cause of the error is likely that at the time this part of the web paper passed through the printing press, the engraved printing cylinders (which were after the lithograph cylinders) were not yet engaged (thus there was no engraved impression at all, not even an albino impression). The booklet-making process is closely integrated with the printing process, thus the quality control inspectors must have missed the small section of printing that was made into booklets before the web of paper was turned into booklets. Due to the web-press nature of the production, an example of an error such as this is not unique, however, I have only seen a few examples offered in the market since it was discovered (which I think was in the late 1980s). [The website illustration also shows, and this offer includes, a properly printed example.] In addition to being a scarce type of error from Sweden, this is a KEY ITEM for a collection of Sweden and/or U.S. related JOINT ISSUES. Furthermore, the New Sweden thematic is one of the most popular Swedish-related topical collections. An outstanding item!
