Hello!!

I found this in a group of my pops pre-canceled stamp collection. It immediately stood out due to the 5 large holes on both left & right sides. I've tried to do some quick research but haven't been able to find too much so I'm turning to my experts! Any information or fun facts would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you & have a wonderful rest of your day.

Looks like a private perforation (type IV) from The Mailometer Company from Detroit. See the Scott Specialized catalog listings for "Vending & Affixing Machine Perforations". Catalog value with those perfs is $10 (used) if it is #343, or $2.50 if it is #383.
