 Postage stamp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Postage stamps are sometimes issued in souvenir sheets containing just one or a small number of stamps.
In the 1960s certain stamp printers such as the Barody Stamp Company arranged contracts to produce quantities of stamps for the separate Emirates and other countries.

 Postage stamp color - encyclopedia article about Postage stamp color.
Nearly all stamps get their color from inks printed on white or light-colored paper; the handful of exceptions include early issues of Natal consisting only of embossing on colored paper, some recent stamps embossed on gold foil or with foil blocking to achieve a metallic appearance, and the Uganda Cowries produced on a typewriter.
In general, collectors follow the stamp catalogs in matters of color nomenclature, even though the different catalogs are not consistent with each other.
Stamps with two colors ("bi-colored") began to appear very early, although typically reserved for higher values, due to the added expense of multiple print runs (and concomitant risk of invert errors).

 Postage stamp gum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Originally, gumming took place after printing and before perforation, usually because the paper had to be damp for printing to work well, but in modern times most stamp printing is done dry on pregummed paper.
Other reasons have included lack of access to gum (the typewritten "Cowries" of 1895 Uganda), extreme tropical climate (1873 Curaçao and Suriname), and intent to sell only to collectors (as with the US "Farley's Follies" souvenir sheets of 1933).
Nevertheless, many collectors of unused stamps want copies that are "mint" or "post office fresh", which means that the gum must be pristine and intact, and they will pay a premium for these.
