Thank you for your response,Al. Appreciate the questions you asked.Allowed me to see more in detail the differences btw rotary and flat plate. with perf.11 GW1c stamp. Rotary is usually taller and wider (19 x 22.5,or19.5 x22) Flat plates have dots on back of them (19x22)
After conducting the mock cut out of a G.W.1c they seem to beScott498's.They definitely have ink sets in the back, for example the precancels below. The first one is very obvious, however, the second one, "Boston" I had to scan to make better view.The Boston precancel was taller, but still has the ink set in back. This stamp still has shine like gum on it. The color is still different from the others.
Will continue to look threw them. Stamp Smarter is an excellent guide to help inform about what one may need to see to tell the differences.
