Hello all , I am asking for your collective opinion on whether or not some of the following Scotts #357 examples are the bluish paper types?
All input is welcome.

If they are not bluish paper they are not 357's. There is no bluish paper "variety". None appear to be bluish paper to me. IMO.

There is nothing wrong with Scott page 53. What are you talking about? What I am saying is that either the stamp is a bluish paper Scott 357 or it is not a Scott 357. There is no Scott 357 "variety". It either is or it is not. Right?

Variety: the quality or state of being different or diverse; the absence of uniformity, sameness, or monotony.

Hi Ham and Egger, a variety is usually listed with a lower case letter after the the catalog #. All #357's are bluish paper, what does your catalog listing show for the variety. I only have an old 2013 catalog.
