I have heard that the printable gages are pretty accurate. Good luck ... the odds of something special are pretty astronomical.

A printable one should get you close enough; but Partime is correct, nothing jumps out as these being anything but very common used stamps.

The perforations gauge of your stamps is 11 x 10.5; it is a 632. You can learn more on the Stamp Smarter site.

The Stamp Smarter site also has downloadable perf gauges. A printable perf gauge should be a 'locked' PDF (which prevents you from accidently changing the page scale).
