10th Anniversary of United Nations October 24, 1955. (1955-2)

United Nations tenth anniversary was celebrated by Pakistan Post Office with the issuance of two commemorative stamps on October 24, 1955.
Because of late decision to bring out stamp on this day, the printer had no time to design a new stamp, therefore two previously issued values were overprinted \"TENTH ANNIVERSARY/UNITED NATIONS/24.10.55\".
The overprint was in blue colour 19.5mmx18.5mm on 1 1/2a anna (Tomb of Jahangir) and 19.5mmx14.5mm on 12 anna (Sui Gas Plant). The overprinting was applied by letter press by PSPC.
These commemoratives were sold over the counters till November 7,1955 (14 days only) but remained valid for postage for another six months. The quantity produced was 110,000 copies of each value. Forgeries of the set are also known, but differ in font shape and size.

8th Independence Anniversary August 14, 1955. (1955-1)

The subject of the new postage stamps issued on 8th anniversary of Independence was 'Industry', known to collectors as the INDUSTRIAL SET. Four values depicted as many industrial units of the country; 2-anna, Karnaphuly Paper Mill, 6-anna Textile Mill, 8-anna Jute Mill and 12-anna Sui Gas Plant, in deep red, bright blue, violet and carmine and orange colours respectively.
The stamps have identical frames and style of inscriptions, "PAKISTAN POSTAGE" in English is at the base and in Urdu, above the views. Denominations are printed at bottom sides on 2 1/2a and 8a values while on 6a it is at bottom left in English and in Urdu. It is diagonally opposite, on 12a.
The 2½ anna value had a design error as the denominator '2' was engraved to the right of its fraction. This mistake was later corrected.
