Yes Tina. These are Imperfs.
Many,many stamps were issued either only Imperf or both perf and Imperf.
And then there are those that have one or more sides Imperf, together with perfed sides.

But these are Imperf...and nice to boot.

Interesting album you have.
I have put some together with some Hitler heads that I will post Sunday. Just one question.

I cannot find the thread where you listed your other collecting interests. Can you confirm for me/us please so I can add a few more bits before it sets sail.

Thanks

Londonbus1.....Wants to sail too

Hi Tina, yes they are imperfs. It simply means that they have no perforations. Many of the earliest stamps were made this way and had to seperated with scissors.

Tina, The pair & block of for are from Bulgaria, Zaragoza is a Spanish local post Civil war, the mauve one 2nd row can't see it well enough, line four are from Imperial Russia, the 1st with the black trident overprint is The Ukraine
during the Russian Revolution & Civil War, the Olympic block of four is a 'Cancel to order' from Poland, The green stamp next to it is Saxony in Germany issued under Russian Occupation at the end of WW2; below it the dark brown/chocolate is also from Poland that did real postage; on the bottom row the 1st is from Bavaria in Germany post WW1; The Cuba stamp may not be imperforate on all sides, the left side is, but it looks jagged which should indicate 'roulette' form of perforation; the next one in blue is Hungary;
then another Imperial Russian stamp; the last pair is from Czechoslovakia.
