Color =              Red Brown - I checked these stamps several times against my color

My Grade =        VF

Comments =      The gum on each stamp has developed small spots/areas of beige toning. On some stamps this toning is almost non-existent while on some the toning is as stated small spots but these spots are more obvious. For some strange reason these spots tend to develop near the perfs and as a result the tips of some perfs turn a light beige.  Overall the stamps are still quite pleasing.
