I often wonder if collectors consider imperfs from booklets collectible as different stamps? One image above by example. I do but perhaps that is just me. I see them as different stamps. Thoughts?


Enjoy your stamps .....Michael

cddstamps,

Opinion:
My approach is always to display and identify.
Rather than a "different stamp", I offer the identification of how a variety may exist.

Ergo, I certainly collect them, but that's only half the job, I mount them with pencilled notes, "brace from a booklet pane of 20" for example, and offer the catalogue number.

Rod, I completely agree.. so many collectors miss such interesting differences I think and the reasoning behind them.

Best wishes Michael

Another couple of difference for readers to enjoy, maybe.

Above: the 1c Bowls stamps from the 1989 Sports issue. two perf types.. perf 14 x 14½ SG 1169 ( Scott 1106A I think) and perf 13½ issued in 1990 SG 1169a ( Scott 1106A I think) Cat for SG 1169 is GB 50p, for 1169a it is £2

Below : Another from this issue, that I think is worth having both perfs in your collection is the 20c tennis stamp.
Issued in 1990 as SG 1176 (Scott 1111) with perf 13½ and then in 1993 with a perf 14 x 14½ as SG 1176a (Scott 1111A I think.. The SG 1176 issue is catalogued at 2.25, while the earlier issue is just 25p.

Best wishes enjoy your stamps... Michael cddstamps
