I couldn't find this in my US Stamp catalog. Is it really a stamp? It looks like a photocopy to me, but it was in with some other stamps I had. Any help would be appreciated.

It is a real stamp. It is a 1935 "Farley's Follies" stamp.

This might help.

Yep, and it's one of my favorite US series of stamps. Look up the story on Postmaster Farley on the Internet. It's a great read!
