The Perfins of India

THE PERFIN STAMPS

Original c1990 By Magnus Werner. Updated 2021 By Jeff Turnbull.

Preface & Dedication.

It must be stressed from the very beginning that the vast majority of this India perfin catalogue was initially put together in 1990 by the late Mr. Magnus Werner of Sweden, with the assistance of the collectors below.

I have now chosen to update it, and include the various amounts of new information which have come to light over the last 30 years. Mr. Bob Szymanski & Mr. Kurt Ottenheimer U.S.A & the late Mr. Pete Maybury S.A. have been ably helping me along with this task, and many new dies and information are attributed to them. Any other new information would be gratefully received, and will be added as and when time permits.

All of the new information is in Red Type, and for the collectors interest there are scans of some of the stamps and covers, the rest being the Magnus Werner catalogue, which remains in its original format.

In Magnus Werner's original catalogue it was stated that the first use of perfins on postage stamps was thought to be on the 1865-67 issues of East India, and I am still of that opinion, Please note that there are now many dies with decimal place numbers, this is to fall in line with the original Werner catalogue numbering system.

Acknowledgements must go to the following collectors for their assistance with the original catalogue of 1990. (Collectors in red also assisted with the update)

Leif Bergman, Sweden. Jack L Brandt, Canada. Salvatore Guarini, U.S.A. Tord Lagerwall, Sweden. Richard L Mewhinney, U.S.A. Bob Murrin, U.S.A. Robert J Schwerdt, U.S.A. Derek Pocock Australia.

"LFS" LOCAL FUND SERVICES

Notes on the "LFS" perfin dies.

As you will see there are many "LFS" perfin dies in this catalogue. Most of these dies are assumed to be "Local Fund Services" and would be associated with the many different Towns and Cities throughout India.

They are often found with poor strikes and only partial perfins, and the consensus of opinion by other collectors is that the dies were made locally by amateurs and they soon lost pins and became damaged, left in this state they led to the many poor and partial strikes that are to be found.

To avoid confusion with these many partials and poor strikes only the better and most differing images are contained in this catalogue.

I would be pleased to hear from anyone with more knowledge on this subject, so hopefully we can have a better understanding of the Local Fund Services.

Quote from the India List & India Office list of 1905

"Local Fund" Revenue derived from special sources and devoted to special objects, and not to the general purposes of the administration, whether Imperial or Provincial, forms a "Local Fund". 66
