This stamp is p.11 and an Offset, and there is no listing for it as an L-2 TS in Brunell, but it looks like one to me.

Can someone confirm that it is really L-2 TS and also do other people have them, so I can confirm if it's actually scarce or just a typo in the catalog, accidentally omitting a common stamp?

In a similar vein, Brunell does not list the Harding p.11 L3-TS with red ink Up, either (only Down). But I know there are lots of fake Hardings -- is this one real or fake?

And does anyone know if Bruce is taking corrections for a future re-release, or is he retired from the Cataloging game?

Although that catalog is very useful in most areas, there are many Federalsburg's not listed. I have a bunch too. You could email Bruce the scans and maybe they will be included in a future version. I have that red Harding, but don't have the offset. The offset is not in the Hoover catalog either - so it can't be too common.

Definitely not fakes - the printer was very creative!

Thank you very much, as ever, for the information - I will label my L-2 TS as "maybe rare"!

And very nice collection, chasa; I do love red on black cancels!
