Hi Everyone;

I remember somewhere someone mentioned that a certain stamp must be Scott XXXX, because the plate number was attached to the stamp, (plate number single). If this is possible, is there a list of all plate numbers used on Wash/Frank, to make a positive ID? Also would it be possible to use the same plate to print sheets, that after printing, received different perfs, and therefore would create two different Scott numbers with the same plate number?

The best source is the Durland Plate Number Catalogue published by the USSS (United States Stamp Society).

Excellent source for US stamp plate numbers. Lots of other help there as well.

Hey Ken. Good to see your name pop up. I remember when I first started you were fairly prolific and I wondered where you had gotten to lately...

Stay well, Dave.

re: positive identification, of Wash/Frank, using the plate numbers

I actually do just that in my collection. Durland is the key.

Here is one page:

(I had to verify perf on the 2¢ because that plate number used on 332 and 519. I assumed they were NOT bluish paper).
