I received these some years ago, but I know that they are not postage stamps. However, several internet searches came up with nothing. Are they baggage stamps, stamps from a game, or something else?

Welcome to the forum!

I think you are correct that they are something else, we call them Cinderallas.

Ask the moderator to move your post to the "Cinderellas" forum.

Some very expert members watch there for this kind of challenge!

This could be a tough one to figure out...not many clues.

If you expose them to a UV lamp, you at least may be able to an idea of the age of the paper.

My initial reaction was (before I read the comment) was that these were stamps from a game of some sort,,, but then I saw that last one, with a "provisional" type of overprint for "11". I would imagine that if these were from a game, they would have not needed the stamped "11" in there. But who knows?

Rough perfs, not a word or letter on them... is there gum on the back?

Sorry for the late reply, bookbndrbob and Bcantin. Yes, I did subject them to UV and yes it is older paper. And yes, I would agree that they are from some sort of game. Two of the "stamps" have gum but the number 3 does not.
