As I searched through a huge box of covers I found this one! 1318A is the tagged version of the stamp vs untagged. An imperf is not listed in my Scotts Specialized.

I went to eBay and someone has a single listed for $275, but I can see the remnants of bottom perfs on that stamp. So it's not real!

Anyone know anything about this one?

Margins are pretty close. I'm guessing it was trimmed for some reason.

To prove that it's an imperf, you'll have to have at least a pair. The one on ebay is a scam.

I agree that the one on eBay is a scam, you can see the bottom trimmed perfs!

And I agree that we'd need at least a pair to verify authenticity. But the fact that it's postal usage from AARP in 1967.... other red flag... AARP return address is DC, where postmark is Philly.

Still interesting to see! I found it in one of the big lots of covers!
