The only other s.s. from Lebanon in my Fauna/Flora accumulation was issued on Sept.20th,1960. My good old Michel,1994 volume,lists two variations of this sheet.Michel Block 23 I without price at the bottom or Michel Block 23 II with price,150 P. in French and Arabic.(shown) The total print quantity of Bl.23 is given with 10.000. However Michel valued B.23 II fifteen times as high,as Bl.23 I. Does anyone know how many of each version were printed ?
Apologies for the delay in responding, but I had missed this question when browsing the thread. My TimbroLiban 1983 Catalogue (Michel R. Aoun) lists this block as having print quantities of 10000 for the version priced at 150p, and 2000 for the un-priced version.

outremer01 - Nice presentation of those overprints, fascinating to see that many different on the same basic stamp ! If you like "variations on a theme", then Lebanon presents many such examples! For instance, the Grand Liban pictorial definitives of 1925 saw use in many postal and fiscal versions.
These are some of the available versions with overprints:
