Booklet panes are addresses towards the end so keep scrolling. .. good reference and way more detail than I need !!

Thanks for that, it was exactly what I needed and I bookmarked the site. This is the important bit.
"Once the selvage of these panes is removed, it is not always possible to distinguish them from blocks of four of the line perforated stamps. The 1c yellowish green can be identified positively because the booklet stamp is always line perforated 13, whereas the line perforated sheet stamps are always 13.2 or 13.3. Similarly, the 2c carmine-rose can be identified because the booklets are either perf. 13.2 or 13.6, whereas the sheet stamps are either 13 or 13.3.The line perforated 13.2 3c orange brown stamps can be positively attributed to booklets as well, as the sheet stamps were generally either line perf. 13 or line perf. 14. "
I didn't even know these existed until I was checking out Newfoundland BOB stuff in Unitrade. They are 4 of the booklets in total and they are very pricey as booklets. The panes are a bit more reasonable but I have a question. The panes I see pictured on line don't have any straight edges and appear to be taken from sheets with staple holes in the upper selvage. This should be very easy to fake unless you bought the whole booklet. Has anyone had any experience with this? I would really like to find a pane or two but not unless I knew a bit more. Can anyone help?
