Real.
Flat vs rotary perforation rate difference.
See second entry on this thread:

Some years ago I printed this slightly reformatted text from a thread and taped it into my Unitrade catalog as a reminder:

Gotcha John
Thanks for the link.

All collectors, go to the link John is showing here.
Hope Jogil {The Perforation Guru} comes on here and enlighten us about the different perforation varieties on ROTARY and FLAT printing processes and the perforations associated with each.

I have my stock book out assigning perforations to each stamp I come across..Big job.

I would like to see Jogil post a detailed perforations associated with the "King George V Arch/Leaf issues"

Thanks again John for your reply.

What's a .2 amongst friends.

It's around 0.3 difference given that Kiusalas 11-72 = 10.94 and Kiusalas 11-70 = 11.25 as found on both Kiusalas Canada and U.S. specialized perforation gauges.

For British American Bank Note Company (BABNC) 1930-1934 issued stamps, perforation gauge does help to determine the printing of these stamps.

One web-fed bar and wheel perforator with 11 1/4 (11.25) x 11 (10.94) gauge perforations was used for web-fed rotary press sheet and booklet stamps.

Two sheet-fed rotary wheel perforators with 11 (10.94) x 11 (10.94) gauge perforations each were used for sheet-fed flat plate sheet and booklet stamps.

The coil stamps were perforated by one web-fed bar perforator with 8 3/4 (8.75) gauge perforations was used for web-fed rotary press coil stamps.

It is hoped that the Unitrade Canada Specialized Stamp Catalogue will include this useful and helpful information at some point soon.

Wow..I expected a reply, and not a volume..Love it.
So much information for collectors out there..Keep up the good work buddy.

I checked my stamp and it has an 11.25x11 perforation.
I'm interested in the double line on the right side of the stamp.
I didn't understand very well from the discussions on the forum, but can it be a re-entry (constant flaw)?

cupram..Normal for this stamp.

wert-Thank you
