Stamp 359 is supposed to be watermark 314. 359a shows it can be wmk 362. I looked at the front of the cayman island section with no listing for either. Went to Great Britain etc and can not find examples of either. Where does one seek watermarks for these.

Thank you for your help and time

I don't have a catalog handy, but many British Colonies have the British watermarks shown in front of the Scott Catalog.

In my 2005 Scott, wmk314 is in front of the volume on the page before the listings begin.
It is on a page that shows dies of British Colonial stamps and British Colonial and Crown Agents watermarks.
These are common to many colonies of the Empire.

Wmk362 is pictured at the beginning of the Cayman's section.
The listing for 359a says "Wmk. 362 (Lesotho)".
The watermark is also pictured at the beginning of the Lesotho listings.

Thank Dstamp was at club with some members and they could not find in 2011. Friend there says he will scan the pages you mentioned when he gets to his older catalog.

Thank you for your time and assistance
