Nice pages, but why does the text refer to Mount Rockwell and Two Medicine Lake, when the cacheted cover refers to the area as Mount Wilbur? |

The poster (first image, light caption) refers to this view by the first designation, and the cover cachet pointing to Mt. Wilbur shows a different view. Whether that is just another view of the same mountain as on the stamp I cannot say, but the names would suggest otherwise.
The cachets all seem to go with distinctive views, with only a couple correlating at all closely to the stamp. |

That 1937 sheet has always appealed to me. Does anyone know if there are more than two plate numbers? |

I'll lay you odds most people do not know there is more than one... in addition, given the beauty of this sheet, I'll even go so far as to state most admire it for what it is, and likely never even looked close enough at it to notice it even (has) a plate number... |

Here's an image of Scott 797 Souvenir Sheet with plate number 21696. For anyone who must have the variety, they are currently offered for sale on ebay for $1 or less:  |

Apparently there weren't that many 21695's printed. |
