Posted it here because there are some pre 1940 stamps in the picture also.

I have ben sorting out a stack of 150 stamps.
So far I sorted out 20 stamps and found the scott number of them.
For some I am not sure I am correct.

Could you guys confirm what I found so far please (and correct me where I am wrong)

Thank you

With a quick look, I'd say the 2c red Washington stamp in the middle is a 1926 Scott #634. The 2c and 1c to the right are probably correct for the year and Scott number. Two websites that would be helpful to you are www.1847usa.com and www.theswedishtiger.com

The first 2c red Washington that you ID as 220 is a 1984 Scott #252. The 219D is correct.

Bottom row, first stamp (1c Franklin) is incorrect. Stamp is either a #552 (perf. 11) or #581 (perf. 10); or #632 (perf. 11 x 10.5).

Also second row, fifth stamp (6c Eisenhower) is #1393 (not #1395, as that is the 8c booklet variety shown correctly on the first row of your scan).
