Is this a genuine 'earliest' date? H/book p87 tells us they were "sent from London 21 July 1859, etc".

This was discussed in detail in a recent(ish) Newsletter (can't remember which one, i also added a forum reference :

Is this right, if duplex CDS letters should align with A25? sold on eBay by soto333 stated to be SG2

Yes agree with you. Well duplex where made with the CDS and A25 that could have been two parts of a duplex next to each other. Same seller had another SG2 and asked if it's blued paper as SG2 was issued in November, but never had a reply.

Rereading SP1 - 1-10a ..."is assumed to be bogus".
Correct date is likely 1913.6.20 5-PM vag-31, and the O noted is the O of One.
Maybe it is not bogus, just late use.
