An example of a single-stamp deluxe sheet (above) and an
imperforate compound deluxe sheet (including the same
stamp) below. The compund sheets are far scarcer as only
about 25 are produced for normal issues. The stamp, from
the French Southern and Antarctic Territories, depicts marine
algae that can act as sources of petroleum in some cases.
