Is there Gum?
I found this written at the Stamp-Collecting-World site.
Quote:
The spacing between the 1864 imperforate stamps of Hamburg was more evenly distributed than that of the 1859 imperforate stamps. There are vertical AND horizontal dividing lines between the stamps within the sheet. These attributes can be seen in the image shown above.
The spacing between the positions on the printing plates was 2.6 mm vertically and 2.8 mm horizontally. The Michel catalog recommends collecting these imperforate stamps with at least one of the horizontal and one of the vertical margins being equal to or exceeding 1.5 mm, or showing portions of one vertical separator line and one horizontal separator lines. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!
