These definitely are from booklet panes. They are listed in the Michel catalog. |

Not errors in any way. They are referred to as Tete-Beche pairs and/or Zusammendrucke. They are a rather specialized facet of German stamp collecting.

To be more specific, these pairs are from the printing sheets used to make booklet panes. Only the 30 + 10 pair would be found in a booklet pane of 6 stamps.
The tete-beche pairs (one stamp upside down) did not appear in the stamp booklets in this configuration/fashion. |

Hi gmot,
Yes indeed 2 X K 26 from MHB 56 (Sheet). The separation was made right in the middle of your block to form 2 X H-Blatt 104, which are in Booklet MH 41. (MH 41 has one 103 and one 104).
Best regards
Hornet |

So, the sheets from which booklets are prepared would comprise stamps perforated on all four sides, but perfs are trimmed from either one or two sides when the booklets are prepared for sale? Do I have that right? |

Panes were sheared, ideally through the middle of the perforation holes, but of course this usually isn't the case. |

EMaxim, This may clarify ... Booklets differ from country to country. US booklets traditionally have straight edges around the perimeter of the pane, while many foreign booklets have perforated edges. |

Thanks to both. It does help. And when hornet785 says above that a booklet stamp "should have perf cut on one or two sides," I suppose that his scan shows what bookbndrbob has said about preparing the panes? |

A booklet Mi # MH-50 and the bottom strip of this booklet. At the bottom strip you can see the separation by cutting from the sheet (cut perforation)   |
