Hello Gussy.... Here's one for you.....strictly speaking it's a freak not an error. #11...84L5L.......position 84 left, plate 5, late......plate crack on cover......dark line through frame & rosette, bottom right. Horrid grungy little cover but the stamp has a current value of $160.00 off cover. I FOUND THIS in a $20.00 ebay auction mixture of early covers !!   |

Jason....
interesting perf freak......a lot of collectors seek these and form some diverse freak collections.....usually the short section at the bottom gets lost and you would never know it started out like this. |

My local Post Mistress and I were discussing, of all things- stamps. She said if she comes across any errors or freaks that they are "bound" to have to turn them back in---cannot sell them! She said she came across a whole sheet recently that had the perforations down the middle of the individual on the stamp. Darn! I asked her if there were stamp police or something that went around turning postal workers people in! ha

Well gussy I guess laws are made to be broken a fellow in my stamp clubs postmistress found several imperf coils of scott 4141 the florida panther.. since the fellow buys a lot of stamps from her..she asked if he wanted them or should she send them back..he wanted all of the several rolls..he parted with some pairs like the one displayed to some of us club members..he is holding the rest back to see what Scotts and the dealers will bear !!If anyone has an August 20, 2007 Linns they can see the article  |

Wow, I was looking at ERROR/FREAK stamps on ebay. It is amazing the price that a lot of those are going for! I am so new at this stamp collecting that I thought I wouldn't notice any error stamps, but I came across one of the SC #2225 US Omnibus misperfed strip of stamps.   I had to look really close to see the line of perforation slowly migrating to the left. I will post them as soon as scanner starts working!xx@### SHOW US WHAT YOU HAVE IN ERROR?FREAK STAMPS!Gussyboy1 |

Tom, looks like that bee is getting ready to fly off that flower! Nice stamps!
Where did you get that one?? I know, I know--you'd have to do away with me if you told me, right? Do you have anymore??!!
