I have run across these same stamps before and they were not colored in by hand. Right now I can't pin down the source, but my memory vaguely remembers a private effort to produce these mourning items. Will keep looking.
Decided to make a permanent record ,because I think in years ahead this subject will come up again instead of throwing them in the trash .Made a seperate page for my forgery collection .
I wanted both , stamps that were actual overprinted and stamps that never was overprinted with the black border on the original set . Not knowing what someone in the future will claim they found .
