We now send you an amended design for double dated
over-embossing die of the smallest size we can make.
We should strongly advise you to continue having the stamps
printed in doubly fugitive ink, as they might sometimes
require to be cancelled by writing. If however they are
always to be cancelled by the over-embossing die, it would
be safe to print them in singly fugitive ink.
