Douglas Ball's 20 A1 ticket description* fairly describes the Burn ticket above, except for paper color: "Same design as A with minor variations: collar wider, BOUND BY reset slightly larger, clearance between BURN and collar increased, ampersand has descending tail; 1856-9, used concurrently with Ticket A - common."  The ticket illustrated above is a color variant: black on cream/white, rather than black on fawn, as in A.  This ticket is found in the books listed below, although not all copies of these books will contain this ticket, or any ticket at all.
