Little had been written about the £5 Orange in the past and when embarking on the study of the £5 Orange there was nothing to indicate how extensively or where any research might lead.

Introduction
The Five Pound Orange is the pride and joy of many a Great Britain collection and a
sadly unfilled gap in countless more. Second only to the penny black, the £5 Orange is
the most iconic GB stamp of the Victorian era. There are few collectors who would
not want to own one. As a basic stamp it is not scarce although market forces ensure it
tends to be expensive. While those with common cancellations can be acquired readily,
there are many scarce types and variations where few examples exist and some are
unique. With the right knowledge, these rarities can be picked up for the price of
normals.
Amazingly, for what is basically just two stamps, the £5 Telegraphs and £5 Postage
have so many interesting and unusual facets that they fill a 312 page book ? The £5
Orange by Dr John Horsey, published by Stanley Gibbons. Not surprisingly, the
complete PowerPoint presentation takes 1? hours. To trim this down to a more
suitable duration for the RPS meeting, the talk will concentrate on:
? The application of technology to identify differences in design
? A non-subjective way to distinguish blued and white papers
? Some of the massive frauds involving the £5 Orange
While the talk is naturally orientated towards the £5 Orange, many of the aspects are
equally applicable to other stamps. Members may wish to ponder where some of this
could be applied to their own fields of interest.
