Errors, Freaks And Oddities

Steve ..you are correct..Not sure if it maybe a variety or not.

Robert

I'm not sure how to quote Wert, however; I just pulled out another six of Nfld 40 and they all have the same dot, same location. So, probably not a variety unless it is a huge coincidence.

Here is a retouch on a Unitrade 106vii


Here are a few with extra lines.

Here is an error/oddity with perforations...Scott O257


Here is a Scott 1162 with huge amounts of ink not on this stamp..Weird.



Robert

Robert, the OHMS with doubling of the perfin holes is interesting. That row of the sheet must have overlapped with another and was punched a second time?
On that 1162, it is used and probably had the surface removed by tape pulling it off while soaking free from paper. Or rubbed off, as you can see the mottled paper in that area.

That would be my estimation as well.

I have lots more...

My SC247 on a three stamp cover has a black spot to the left of the statue. Although there is a black Royal Visit cancellation, it does not appear that the black spot is related to it normally It may be ink splatter at the time of cancellation.

Interesting BlackJag..I have sheets..I will have to check this out.

Also look at of my Scott 1181 stamps...I perf. one as 13.3 on the top and another perf. as 13.5 on the top...I am not saying they used 2 different perf. wheels, but looks a little strange.

Robert

A few more!

Nice stamps Major1044..Wonder what we would call the spot under that horse..Hmmmmm...Haha

Robert
BlackJag..I have looked at a couple of sheets so far looking for your irregularities and have found none..So far...
Here is a few oddities on one of my sheets hoping any one out there that comes across the same oddity on sheets or singles could possibly find a variety.

Here are a few oddities from my sheet No.1-2

Here is a little oddity on a Newfoundland R26 "inland revenue" 5 cent stamp.
There is a doctor blade {Ductor blade} oddity under the elk.

Robert

Finally got everything up and running again, this is the #484 that has no period or comma after Toronto. Wert showed one with a period and one with a comma earlier on page 5.
I noticed there was another difference between the two shown below is this just a shift in the black colour?

Cheers, Bill

Bill...Good find buddy.

Robert

Here is another little known oddity with reguards to Canada O.H.M.S. stamps..The perfins on these stamps I have found came in 3 sizes.
Large-Medium-Small

I have already looked through about 50,000 of my 66,000 stamps...Took weeks and weeks...See sizes below.

Here is another oddity {posted awhile ago} showing a Scott F2 stamp on a cover, BUT, some thing strange about it...Below is the cover...

Robert


BUT..Look at the top of the F2..The F2 stamp is over top of another possible F2 stamp..Weird.



Here is another item not recognized in catalouges..
A "Slip Print" on the Scott 837,,,Top is normal..Bottom is the slip print.
