Additional Information 152-157 are printed on low-quality newsprint. The entire edition is of very poor quality - with creases in the paper, partial absence or soiled gum and poor perforation. There are stamps with larger margins and those with a reduced format, due to perforation near the illustration. Of all values, there are unperforated and unperforated on one side, and from 152-154 - pairs, between which there is no perforation. In the case of 152-157, only those that are in a pair, in which at least one of the margins is over 6 mm, are recognized as imperforated. 10,000 series were retained in the printing house, which in 1932 were sold to the merchant B. Asenov.
