  1. I believe there may be an error on the cylinders. I have full sheets as follows:
    4d 1A 1A 1A
    9d 1A 1A 1A 1A 1A
    Hope this helps

    1. My copy has only 3 colours for the 9d and this corresponds with the SG cat. Not sure why you would have five colours? Feel free to contact me with pics. 🙂
