Vintage Switzerland PTT Cross and Ball Test Stamps Issued By The Swiss Postal Administration (PTT, Postes, Télégraphes Et Téléphones) Scarlet Block/4 MNH.
Modernist Abstract Trial Print Block Produced By The Postage Stamp And Printing Service Of PTT Berne As Part Of Their Rotary Press Calibration Procedures, Most Likely Dating From The Mid-To-Late 20th Century. This Vignette Features A Geometric And Concentric Design In Varying Shades Of Red, Centered Around A Radiating Orb With Fine Line Engraving That Showcases The Precision Capabilities Of Steel Line Etching. The Design Incorporates Curved Wave-Like Patterns On The Left And Angular Cross-Hatch Structures On The Right, Framing A Central Sphere Whose Radiating Lines Emphasize Depth And Balance. At The Top, A Horizontal Bar Crosses Vertical Strips, Possibly Suggesting The Swiss Cross In Abstract Form. This Is A Block Of Four Perforated Trial Impressions With No Denomination, Country Name, Or Text, In Accordance With The Official Statement That These Are Not Postage Stamps But Test Impressions Used During Mechanical Or Material Trials Of The Swiss Rotary Stamp Press.
