Concord, N.c. - Question About Ts Cancels In Brunell

Can anyone explain to me why Brunell lists an L-TS 4 in his CD catalog, but the TnT catalog 2007 doesn't have it?

From the picture, it seems to be different from L-TS3 in that the N.C. are close together. But in that case, how does it differ from L-TS1?

Also, the copies of the 1c Prexie that I have all seem to be not complete lines but maybe the line is interrupted by some lettering and then continues? No such thing is listed in either catalog, and the "letters" always are printed disappearing off the far left edge, so I am not sure about this -- could just be badly broken lines??

Finally, I have never seen an L-TS2 (spaced for parcel post and the like), so can anyone post a pic of the 4 types, or as many as possible, to explain how they look next to each other?

Thanks.

There are 4 different types. One additional confusion is that the picture for L-1 in the 2007 catalog is actually L-4 [!]. L-2 is not for parcel posts, when the 2007 catalog says arranged for horizontal stamps they mean small horizontal definitive like the 50 cent 1926. L-3 is the only one with 7mm state width. The 4 pictures in 2011 Brunell are actually correct, in order, for L-1, L-2, L-3, L-4 although they are slightly misplaced. L-4 is not in the 2007 T&T catalog but will be added in the next addition. The new Cv's will be in order, 1, 5, 5, 1 .

Perfect, and I even thought the pic in the catalog for TS 1 was wrong. So I am not in fact going crazy (crazier). Hooray. Thanks.

And my "lettering" at the left edge of TS4 stamps is just imaginary and is really just a bunch of badly broken lines? There aren't any that have something like "MW Aug 51" or whatever printed in place of part of the lines?

Here is the picture:

measure the N.C. , looks like 7mm (L-3) to me

Yes, it is -- but what about the bars at the left. Are those letters or do the lines just break up like that a lot?

nail heads probably
