Notable Highlights:

• Aitutaki Surtax Sheets (Right): You have two different sheets from the Aitutaki set. Notice the "+5c" text; this money went toward charitable causes for the handicapped in 1981.

• Caicos Islands (Middle Left): The large blue sheet is a "Presentation Sheet." It’s a very attractive display piece that often anchors a page in a Royal album.

• Montserrat & St. Vincent (Bottom): These colorful strips are "sheetlets." They often depict the couple in different poses or ceremonial dress and are staples for the 1981 thematic.

• Jamaica & Ghana (Top/Centre): These use the same ornate "Omnibus" frame design, which was common among Commonwealth nations that year to keep a consistent look for the wedding series.
