    Scott 2616 var, "Mzy" instead of "May" variety, plate number 1

Due to a flaw in the film used to create the offset image and lettering for this stamp, UL pos 2 and LL pos 42 contain a constant plate variety that produced a malformed "a" in the offset blank ink used to print the word "May." This means it affects all left position stamps with plate number 1, or 1.5 million stamps out of the total print run. To some collectors, it looks like "Mzy.".
