Replica
Reproduction of stamps sold during the early days of collecting.
Usually printed in one colour on a sheet containing a number of
different designs. A replica is not intended to deceive either the
post office or the collector. Some modern replicas can still be
purchased through mail-order promotions.
Reprint
Stamp printed from the original plate after the issue is no
longer valid for postage. Official reprints are often distinguished
in some way from the "real" ones.
