Written by Kaye S. There are two types of subs, fast attacks and boomers..

The $400 stamp in the sheet features the stamp-on-stamp design. Guyanaâs Kaieteur Falls, one of the worldâs most spectacular and powerful waterfalls, is shown in the selvage. An inscription in the selvage reads: âOne Cent Black on Magenta. The year 2006 marks the 150th anniversary of the printing of the rarest and most valuable stamp in the world, the âOne Cent Black On Magenta.â
Just one copy of the One-Cent is known to exist, and it has not been seen in public for 30 years. It has always been the world's most famous stamp. It is one of these objects around which a huge mystique has grown up over the years, said David Redden, the worldwide chairman of books and manuscripts at Sotheby's. The stamp was printed just 16 years after the introduction of postage stamps.
