All kinds of stuff missing !

Poor spelling in pair with good spelling !

Extra finger ! [Design error]

I bet he prefers mittens not gloves when he's at the "sports d'hiver"

Also, he is not setting a good example! Not using stamp tongues!

Well I find stamp tongues a bit of a problem with mint stamps. I prefer tweezers, myself.

He looks to have a very surprised look on his face too. What a great find. Thanks for sharing it.

nevertheless, it looks like he has a large collections considering the number of albums on the stack and shelves...

I'll contribute my imperf pair to the feed.

For whatever reason, it seems the "Americana" series of stamps has an unusually high EFO rate, as I've seen many examples of color missing, imperforate and other similar EFO's on several denominations of stamps from that series.

By the way, am I seeing some sort of a letter or number on the second stamp at the top of the feather quill?

And if one were to really flyspeck that pair of stamps, did you notice the "nib" on the bottom of the quill looks different between the two stamps? Could it be attributed to over-inking?

I'll try another scan close up to the areas your talking about Wt1.

Looks like an 'e' or a reversed '9' in red. Interesting.

Sorry, looks like it was a red strand of string.Still don't know whats going on at the tips of the quill on the impref though?

Are you sure that's an extra finger and not his cuff?
There is a white cuff sticking out from his other sleeve, and the "extra finger" is whiter, less shaded despite being underneath the others. Also it is pointed, like the edge of a cuff meeting the edge of his sleeve, not rounded like a finger.

Good eye Stampgal!
