I found this stamp in the album of a very old collection with numerous other Classic US issues. It appears imperf, but it is not Type 1 as it lacks projections on all four sides. All help welcomed.
Trimmed too close at top, but clearly at the bottom a type 2 (plate no. 2), which was issued with perforations either a Scott 30a brown or the subsequent Scott 30 orange brown with the perfs trimmed away.
From the color as it appears in this scan on my computer screen I would say it is a Scott 30a brown.
Thanks for the expertise and assistance. Why would anyone have trimmed this piece, as it had very nice margins, and decent centering before the cropping?
