All five stamps are genuine vintage used examples with postal cancellations.

The stamps show age-related wear consistent with their more than 125-year history, including cancellation marks, toning, irregular or missing perforations, and other imperfections. Please examine the photographs carefully, as the exact stamps pictured are the stamps you will receive.
