I was trying to ID the paper types of the attached Pomeroy stamps and need some help....
When I acquired them I assumed these are the more common "thin bond paper". They are un-gummed and I see no wood fibers in the paper.
They are very transparent though, an indication of "thin pelure paper" if I read correctly.
I scanned front and back with white paper behind to highlight the transparency.
Am curious what the experts think.
Thanks in advance!
Harry
