My overview post on the Decimal Machin Head stamps of Great Britain:

I'd welcome comments on anything I missed. This is just intended to be an overview to make the issue less daunting to collectors. When I get hold of a Gibbons Specialized and have more stamps to work with my intent is to write more detailed posts. But it's been more than 30 years since I last worked on Machins with the specialized catalogue, so while I can remember most of the differences, I couldn't remember which stamps they applied to, so this post discusses everything in VERY general terms.
