         For the first printing where there was a full plate plug above the second stamp and a partial plug below position
         59.  After  this  printing  the top  plug  was  removed  and  replaced  the  lower  one.  The  plate  plug  continually
         deteriorated from  the original full  plug.  One can use the changes to determine the printing date.  The stamps
         below show the progression of the damage to the plate plugs from 1937 to 1953.
