The final stage in the production of Tonga's 1988 petro-stamp
included compositing the earlier photographs and the lettering
layout, changing the denomination to 32 seniti, and producing
bromide proofs (above) to check the quality. The final printed
stamp is shown below in its normal perforate form and a
composite bromide strip of the full set is shown at bottom.
