    From The Chronicle of U.S. Classic Postal Issues Nov. 2025.An Update on U.S. Scott 231 types by Labron Harris,Editor Broken Framline Transfer Reliefs. This article is important and as some of you know I've been working on this stamp for some time now myself and have noticed missing information on this stamp. There are so many different plates and the way they wore like in this article. They have gone unnoticed by collectors since 1893. Enjoy.

       
Here are three more im sending in this week left to right U.S. Scott 279A, 279A, U.S. Scott 374  I removed all from covers.. The PSE Census for Scott 279A is only 2 used none others. But the 374 is a large amount but will grade high. Would you collect Graded stamps? The PSE certificate just arrived yesterday its a replacement for the other they sent me. The other had the wrong everything on it. Except the grade. 90 out of 100 not bad for a stamp i soaked loose of a cover that was damaged. The two 279a types will grade low but they are rare. The 374 will grade almost 100 used if not 100. The Two PF certs Below  are great to find out the True Types and if they are Genuine. As well as the APS. Some collectors like one of the other companies. Note I sent in the PSE for grading one  PF the 1812 date got a first and earliest use on it. I sent in both APS and got Both Earliest used on those as well Note the Scott 279A on cover I found is the only one ever found on cover to date( The others were a later date not worthy of sending in as an earliest used). Good Luck What ever you choose. P.S Its not easy to get these It takes a lot of research and a lot of luck. Its easy to pay for them and send them in but without the proper research and a lot of luck you might be disappointed in the Experts out come .Like the middle PF it was sent in to be a scarce Scott 357 but it was a common 331. Click. link to get more info.>>  http://psestamp.com

I purchased a book at the show and found a U.S. Scott 231 Broken hat type one. Fair hill Philadelphia Nov 7 1893 cancel. I collect date cancels on this stamp as well. A double bonus. The only thing this stamp can not be added to the sheet reconstruction I'm working on but it has all the other bells and whistles. My next move is to finish the sheet reconstruction of this stamp What ever it takes So if you have some sell them to me .Time is running out for me so I need to complete it.

Ive been sick for awhile now and im not getting beter as I should. I like to thank the club for having me over the years. Thank you all so much I had tripple bypass but Im haveing some issues. Thanky you so much and happy collecting.

It was great today to go to the stamp show. I was not feeling well from my triple bypass surgery But everyone was great I even bought some new stamps for my collection. My son was there to help me I always love going to the club or there show if I can and I hope to do it again.

Born today, on October 23 in Brantford, Ontario ... Lawren Stewart Harris (1885-1970) a Canadian artist and one of the founding members of the Group of Seven.

One of his landscape paintings, Bylot Island, was featured on one of the stamps in Canada's 1967 Centennial Series.

Stamp: Canada
Centennial Definitives - High Value
Bylot Island

Cancel: CDS
Based on the S on the bottom strike, with what seems to be P.[Q.] and the last four letters DEON on the top one, I'm assuming this is from St. Gédéon, PQ ... written in capital letters without accents. Happy to be corrected. I can't find anything else that fits.

   

As time goes by ... add to this thread other stamps for other days and other people.

Do you mind if i invite stamp experts to your board If they want to. Some will like to have it out with me No just talk stamps covers.1908 - 1920 Washington - Franklin Issue

I won at a casino when I went with my son and our friends to see Helix and Nazareth. Now I can buy some stamps at the show    What bands do you like?

I've seen listings from auction houses that the perfs have been clipped because they had gum or something else on them. To me that is ridiculous .What do you think about this? Oh buy the way i put a Beatles Record on Beatlemania If your old enough to know who they are LOL

Ive owned this stamp for 17 years I need help I know nothing about it.Thank you
