I've started scanning the old books as put together and am trying to ID via the 1973 Scott's I've got. Please let me know if I've gotten it correctly.
In an earlier post, there seemed to be some interest in (what I think is) this same stamp on an envelope. Here, I've two pages of same stamp, but one page is marked DL. Am I correctly interpreting that to mean double line watermark?
looking at your stamps and looking in my 2011 blackbook. I believe the first page is 1894 issue. book value 7.00 each used The second one matches up with the the 1895 issue.. book value 5.00 each scott #'s 246 ultramarine , 247 blue (UNWMK) ,264 blue (DL) .. it won't be a 279 as it's the wrong color.
Your query illustrates why collectors should jot comments and info on the pages of their stock sheets. Collectors are consistantly mute in doing this. Information, however small encourages and educates. Information sometimes is tricky to find, why waste it by committing it to just memory? C'mon make notes ! (rant over )
