                           Two covers bearing Indian Service stamps with the Nasik
                      PAKISTAN overprint have been recorded; both were sent by the
                      Locust Warning Officer in Guadur in December 1948.
                           Although Indian stamps with a hand-stamped PAKISTAN
                      overprint were issued in Muscat on December 20th, 1947, they
                      were not placed on sale in Guadur. They were, nevertheless,
                      valid for use there, and the anna and 2 anna values are known used
                      on covers which are of the greatest rarity.
