Illustrated below is another variation of overprint issued for Patiala, used during the reign of  Queen Victoria. The spelling of Patiala  (in red) is that of 1885-1890 with the "Service" overprint in black. The "Service" overprint in this variety slightly smaller that that used on the 2 Anna (see 1885-1890 2 Anna (dull blue) this blog). This example also has the local cancel "P" (Patiala)
