Hello all.

Was hoping for an identification of this newspaper stamp. Plan on listing it but have not been able to find a similar example.

No idea of its value or identification number.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Need someone with a Mosher catalog. Maybe Dan (Revenuecollector)?

Mosher catalog page 68 AMUX -S371 value 75.00 for a good copy but this one has flaws so would be worth less

Worthless is a harsh assessment. This kind of ephemera frequently had flaws due to handling. Large tax paid revenues, for instance, often suffered similar damage, yet issued examples retain their value. You can't grade these using the same expectations as a typical postage stamp.

@ChestnutAve could you show the back of this? Are some of these foldovers?

Away with words.

To be clear, Gizzmo didn't say the item was worthless, he said it was worth less [than $75] because of the condition.
