I've done some searching on this forum, and found references to Imperial Punctures, etc., but no real pictures. Shown below is a recent purchase which I'd like some more information on. There are small fragments of previous hinges still attached that I will soak off later. This is Scott 55 (ACSC 48), the narrow A and crown watermark. The watermark is from the top right of the sheet (as viewed from the back) due to the marginal markings. The cancellation is difficult to determine, but probably Innisfail, Queensland.


To me, these are collectable, but probably very easy to imitate as all one needs is a good hole punch. Anyway, comments appreciated.

I'd say Innisfail is correct.
