I have what looks like a Scott/Unitrade # 341 5c QEII (Wilding). It has "1954" in lower right corner. But it looks like it is a cut square from a postal card. It is trimmed close to the design so no perfs. It is on heavier stock than a stamp and has no gum. It looks like it may have beet cut from a postal card.
I just can't find a Wilding postal card with 5c denomination in my 2011 Unitrade catalog.
Did I just miss it in the catalog somewhere?
Any help is appreciated....

Thanks Jacques!
I'll check it out. I wasn't sure because the paper it is on is thicker than what I expected for envelope paper. It is more like the thicknes of a postal card.

It could also came from special order enveloppe like UO 50 and I give you the wrong
number for this cut square... it's not U 75 but U 79... sorry for the confusion...

It is likely from one of the special order envelopes for returning election results (an oversized and heavier paper envelope). Listed in the Webb Postal Stationery Catalogue as EN813, in use from 1955 to 1960 and coming in 13 varieties of envelope.
