Thanks to Watermark for this Scott 247 sheet and three oddities/varieties.

Also my C2 with a reversed number "1"

Here is a couple examples of what I call "TAILS".
When I took lithography/printer ing class in 4 years of high school, we had what was drying/sticky ink.
It was flung onto what was being printed.

To all new collectors out there, it might increase the price of your stamp, or decrease the value.
BUT, remember this, you have one of a kind oddity that no one else has.





Now here is another variety not yet recognized in Unitrade yet.
Hairline variety on Scott 128a.

Here are a couple of missed perforation errors.

Nice, Wert:
Here's a nice Newfoundland Misperf

I collect NFLD stamps..You can mail it to me...haha.

Robert

You have two positions misidentified on my sheet of 247. The jagged brown mark above the statue is position 7. The two dot copy is position 20.


Mike

Sorry Mike...My mistake
Old age setting in.

Robert

At my 70 years of age you had me going back to my sheet to double check it before posting the correction. Old age is definitely setting in...

Hi Wert, your Scott 484 from page 5 of this thread can also be found blank without either a dot or comma. Any idea of the position number?

Cheers, Bill

Mike...We could have been brothers...haha

On page 5 you have incorrectly identified all stamps as SC369.

The Loons are the $1.00 SC 1687.

I don't know what the fish stamp is, but the dots below the mouth, etc, indicate a slip print causing the dots in the half circles.

Paul

Hi Paul..Slip print or shifted print..???

Robert

Even Newfoundland has dots...
Robert

You'll see the same dot on the misperf that I uploaded.
