Unknown Stamps Please Help I.d.

Does any one have information on these stamps?

Welcome to the forum Whitman. You stamps are Honduras (left and bottom) and El Salvador.

Honduras 1890 5c blue Scott Catalogue #42 and 50c brown SC#48.
The perforations are interesting. There's no mention I can see about imperfs.

El Salvador (look under S in the catalogue) 1896 10c brown SC# 150 watermark 117 or SC#157F unwatermarked. These are noted that they do exist imperforated.

Hi jamesw


In all probability they are Seebeck re-prints. I have found these perforated, imperforated horizontally, and all other combinations. If on very thin paper they may be printer's waste.

In my Ecuador collection I must have 3 or 4 stock sheets full of possible Seebeck official reprints. Have to borrow my friend's book one day and figure out what is what. Seebeck really did a number on collectors.

Here is a Linn's article about Señor Seebeck:

Hey guys thanks for sharing. The paper does appear to be very thin. All the stamps I am posting are from my grandpa's collection. I have other interesting ones to share as well.
