The 20pa rose and 1pi blue (and also a 5pi brown) were prepared but unissued.

Thanks for the info here Nigel, Mal. |

OK, so with a little more research in my 2010 SG Cat I found "East Roumelia"
But can't find any SG No's: for the first three stamps.
1pi Blue?
20pa Pink or Red?
The forth one is SG 8 20pa Black & Red Cat £1.70.
The Last one is SG 11 5pa Lilac Cat £.55.
