## About this plate

THE PREVIOUS BASE. One structural point is worth the entry on its own: the Centennial Arch base was issued CONCURRENTLY with the 1985 Ski base, first as an extra-fee option, then free from 1997, so Utah's habit of running two standard designs at once is thirty years old and is not an artefact of the modern four-design catalogue.

## How numbers are issued

on the Centennial/Arch base the first letter progressed BACKWARDS (999 ZZZ was followed by 001 YAA, 999 YZZ by 001 XAA, and so on), the same backwards habit the modern Arch base kept
