Especially 25 as it was printed from "4 of the plates used to print the imperf. stamps".

That's why I was pleased when I found this one several years back.

That one definitely deserves a wow!

Finally a nicely centred specimen Caper.
It's exactly what I am hunting for

It also looks like it deserves a bath...

That 60L2 looks post-office fresh, stallzer. Just gorgeous!

New member here. Been collecting since 11 years old. Now 59. Math is weak but I am old(er). lol
I have always had an eye for one in a million copies of thing and while my quantity is not what the age would suggest, it is optimized for my eye. There was a lull of about 20 years while I was a)running my business, losing my business later and feeding my kids. Now in the 14th hole of my life I can get back to the frivolities of life and the wonder of stamp collecting once again. I am doing the Lindbergh flight and its fun again!
Here is a few of my Washington 3c

Thanks for sharing.
Are you sure your top stamp is a 26?
Looks like it has 4 frame lines.

Yeah. My typo. Thanks. 25 not sure of 25a/25
Acquired around 1992

Welcome, mpobe!

Your first stamp is a #25 (no inner frame lines).

Here's one I need some help with. It was cataloged as a #20 (type II) but with the top cut off I can't confirm.

Confirmed. It is a Plate 12 B Relief, Type II.

Thank you very much
