Inherited 2 Collections One From A Millionaire And 2nd From A Stamp Fanatic Who Knew His Stuff..

Hi in reply to last topic this photos for the request of a closer look at the cancel.

Then I got two stamps I'm curious about after that .

Does anyone know info on these?




These next two photos are a cancel or just ink bleed #129656; or some one trying to just draw on it with a ink pen or marker I'm assuming what. Do you think?




This set of stamp photos is a mind stumper for me. It's hard to see but easy in person it's alike another stamp I have they are alike in that it's a part Stamp and added part of a stamp to complete it this one here in the front view I can say the upper left corner is the best tell on we're it begins it's a left side added strip that under laps the main piece evenly a few cm under and completes the left end like it was glued on under the rite side?

Idk if it's fake or a extension of a roll? Any thoughts? I have another that is the bottom added under the top to complete the bottom of the stamp both Washington's this one here has part of the envelope on its back so it's tricky to see but it's an addition for sure.

The last one looks like a paste up. They did that to make rolls of coil stamps. This one looks a little rough. Many of the flat plate coil stamps of this series are faked, so just be aware of that, but if real it would only be Scott 353 or 388 based on it being perf 12. You would need to check the watermark on it to differentiate between them. 353 is the more common of the 2.
