1st...the auction is mine.
2nd...I know very little about perfins.
3rd...can someone explain why this is where it is now?
Is the perfin scarce?
Is it scarce on the E7??
Curious.....and happy.

I collect perfins casually, but do not have a catalog to determine scarcity factors, etc., however, this excerpt suggests that any perfin on a Scott E7 Special Delivery stamp is indeed scarce:



As for the Cud/ahy perfin on the stamp in question, it is attributed to the Cudahy (Meat) Packing Co. of Chicago:

wt1....guess that explains it.
Based on your info, this would be the ONLY CUDAHY perfin on a #E7.
thanks....Kevin

Anyone want to guess the final price???
As a bonus....if you guess within $2.50 higher or lower....(so a $5 window)
I will send the closest a set of 4...#1686-9 Bicentennial SS, unused, NH.
(in case of ties....first guess in wins)
OK.

Ooh, tough one to guess. I'd say $65. Only two serious bidders at the moment, but you never know who might have set a snipe in for it.

According to ebay page view counter.....
stamp is getting plenty of views.
(actually I dont think they are very accurate....
sometimes I get a bid on a item and it shows no page views)

Better yet....I will give the S/S to the closest guess.
