I am trying to identify what stamp goes into this space. I checked Scott and they do not appear to list a QEII that is NOT a Machin. Steiner has all Machins in a separate section.
I went to SG catalog and there is SG 1789 but it is a Machin.

angore , I looked at Stampworld's website and I think it is the rectangular 1st Class machin issued that year. I am not sure why Steiner put it here rather than in the separate section but I remember thinking the same thing...why was this one separate from all the rest on his pages. Stamp World

I'd just delete it from the page it is on. Squish it in the Machin's pages if he didn't put it in there. Maybe he ran out of room on those pages & had to stick it somewhere.
With the shape being square, one would think it would not be the usual rectangular shaped Machin!
I checked my Stoneham & don't know what else it could be.

It could be left over after Scott moved all Machins together.

After checking more, Steiner includes spaces for the pre-decimal Machins in the main section but also has a separate section for Machins (pre-decimal to date). I believe these were leftover from when Scott moved all Machins to separate section.
Does Stoneham have more details on Machins than SG concise?
