Hi all! As I have mentioned before, I have a few approval/appraisal books from the 50's that I discovered in a box/tote. I was going through one last night that has stamps in it from India and its different states. I scan the pages of these books to keep a record of what I have. As I was scanning, I noticed that some of these overprints seem to have errors of some kind. Was this a common occurrence with these stamps? The pics I have attached are screen shots of the stamps. I have not removed them from their pages yet. I thank you in advance.
