I don't have another one from this series to tell if wide or narrow between four and cents. Is it a number 11 or a trimmed 44?
Thanks for helping.
Paul

If you're using Scott numbers, I believe you'll see that 11 has "POSTAGE" in the top frame/tablet? I think you have narrow spacing, trimmed.

(If that stamp has a "wide" setting, I'm not seeing it.)

Scott does a poor job with these issues. Your stamp is a type A5 which could make it a trimmed 44, 44A, 44B, 47, 52 or 60. The wide and narrow do not apply to the 4 cent issues.

Here is an excellent exhibit of these issues:

Thanks Guys. Perfect response. Loved the link. You were correct about the "postage". Totally missed it.

"Catalogue blindness" is a known condition. We all catch it from time to time.

It doesn't have any telethons because, for most of us, at least, it's only temporary.
