Is this a pre-printing fold/wrinkle?  |

Thanks... I can τΏτ it's a crease...
The question was (and I'll be a little
more specific)...
Does it appear to be pre-printing...
it's bubbled slightly on the left, and
creased more to the right, however the
ink is not disturbed/broken at any point
along the crease...

A fold will be able to seperate....
there will be unprinted area.
I have shown a #114 pre-print fold in another topic.
I have since sold it....so will have to look for the topic. |

No need... I've seen it and others like it...
This stamp (appears) to have had the
wrinkle in it at time of printing...
the enlargement image I have shows
the valley of the crease on the right
(as well as all other points) inked...
Thanks again,KL... |

I share Kevin's opinion. If it were pre-print, there would be no ink in the crease (it would be white on the inside). |

It's not pre-printing. If it was a pre-printing paper fold you'd see a lack of printing in the wrinkle. Sadly, this is a badly creased stamp I'm afraid. |

Thank you, Bill for chiming in...
I was looking at this stamp only
as a space filler, and planned on
removing the crease if it was not
a pre-print fold, and, of course
(not) removing the crease if it
was...
I'll now make the seller an offer...

Randall,
Pass. It should be considered to have a serious fault.
That's not a valuable enough stamp IMO to justify buying such a faulty copy. |

Stamp is on its way to me... paid
a whole $10.00 for it... and when
I'm done with that crease, everyone
will be saying "that stamp had that
crease?" (wink)
I'll re-post when said crease is (*gone*)

P.S. The only *serious fault* is
called the *San Andreas*... and
this ain't in the same class, pardner... |
