Scanner cover moves black backing before contact. 4th attempt You could try cutting a Hagner or something similar down to the required size, to hold one or two stamps. I use it, and it works well. |

Gents, thanks for posting all of these images. I am drooling at many of these great stamps. Mine pale by comparison. |

mhc99, On SCF I take the time to look and enjoy as many posted stamp images as possible. Unless told, or one collects that particular stamp, very few would know whether a shown stamp is $10 or $1000, so we're all in the same boat.... we enjoy each others stamps. |

Ozfrank They came in different watermarks,and the book refers to them as Die 2 and Die 2B but I don't really understand why I can't see a reference to Die 1. P.S. I would like to welcome you a good friend to SCF  |

Ozfrank, a big hello, so happy to see you here. I'd give you a 'happy face' welcome but I don't think they work on 'Quick Replys'. |

On the subject of slightly skewed scans, I use the free Picasa program. I scan, straighten, crop adjust contrast and post. I recommend it |
