Stamp Smarter identifies 5 different versions of the 3 cent Jefferson:
807 sheet
807a booklet pane (6)
807b imperf inbetween (horizontal pair)
807c imperf pair (totally imperf)
807d Imperf inbetween horizontal pair, booklet pane)

I believe that in the attached picture the far right stamp is an 807b.
Could the other three be 807b's as well? Thanks.

Perfs on 3 sides. All singles from booklet panes. 807a.

Even the last one on the right? Looks to have been clipped away from another stamp on the left side.

First and third stamps I can see being from a booklet pane.

But the second and fourth looked to be clipped away from other stamps.

In order for it to be an imperf in-between you have to have a pair, otherwise it is just a regular stamp
Just as I posted this Moyock posted his question. The stamps could be ( most likely ) from a booklet. Booklets were very often miscut. If the stamp used to be imperf in-between there is no way to prove that.

These booklets have all sorts of bad centering. You can get panes that have the full plate number not trimmed away. As Peter said, you need to have a pair to prove that it is imperf between.

I agree with BOBPLATES. The stamp in question is definitely an 807a, based on the oversized margins and the poorly left booklet edge, which is quite common on this issue. Take a look at full, 1c, 2c, or 3c miscut Prexie booklet panes--they are very plentiful. You'll quickly begin to recognize the difference in printing and perforation.
