Hello
If anyone can confirm my identifications of these three stamps, it would be very much appreciated.
-I believe that all 3 are Type I (Outer frame lines).
-The first is definitely more brownish than the other two. A #10?
-The last two seem more reddish. #11?
Thank you in advance for your help.

They are all perforated, so your possibilities are 25, 25A, 26, or 26A.

They all are #26. The left stamp is a top row position and a damaged transfer above the lower-left rosette variety. This is indicated by the white space where the tessellated design should be.

Riley, the outer frame lines that define Type I have to be present on all four sides. You can see from the top of the left-hand stamp and the bottom of the other two that there are no outer frame lines at top or bottom.

I agree they are all 26, although I was hoping Riley would return with another attempt. Teach to fish vs give a fish.
