Just got this. #180 with 2 spacing bars. One is before the 1920, the other is after the 1920. Anymore out there ? Let me know...Albert
-
It looks like this stamp may have issued during 1999-2004 time of civil war in Liberia. Any help from anyone ? It looks like it has a cancel from Monrovia, Liberia.

Here is a new 1914 cover i just got. It shows #129-133, O72-O75 all Dated 15 FEB 1914 on a light colored paper envelope. I think this is how they put them on before they were cut out. The other cover scan is one i got some time ago Dated 15 MAR 191…

Bryant, Now i see the 2 Four in the middle and the 3 Four at the bottom. I also see the 3 1920 at the bottom. But i only see one 1920 at the top ? Is it there ? Albert
-
Bryant, Thanks for showing the Typewritten surcharge. A very rare stamp, hard to find these days. The Quintuple on #177 is listed as #177e. I guess the bars at the top are from the stamp above. Albert

Greg, Thanks for your post. Here are 5 more photos to see. #176 Inverted 'S' #178 Double overprint with missing '2' in 1920 O111 Pair Inverted 'S' on right stamp and filled zero in 1920 #O111c Double overprint one inverted #O111b Double over…

I think #O74 is a double print. If you look at the TOP bar of the 5 you see one bar is even and the other print is at a angle going up. Check out the tip of the bottom of the 5 that comes to a small upward circle and look close i see two diff size c…

Here is a photo of #132 with the tip of 5 missing.

Here are 2 photos that come from my collection of over 540 copies of #129-133, O72-O75. #132 with a big fat 5. #O74 with looks like a double print of the 5.

seredag Because i was bidding on that...You outbid me at the last...Oh well sometimes it happens. Albert
-
Seredag Did you get that from a dealer in AZ named Glen ?
-
Travis, Looks right to me. Wow how about that. I got that block from a S.S. Kahn a stamp dealer in Dallas sometime in the 1970's. Mr Kahn got all his Liberian stamps from Philip Cockhill. The story Mr. Kahn told me is that they both meet in London …

This #178b has a missing '2' in the 1920. Used copy dated 27 XII 20. Any other ones like this around ?
-
Looks like a fake. Looks too good to be real.
-
That July/September issue was from 2012. Great story. Loaded with info on this issue. Happy New Year.
-
Can you the other photos if you have them. Is this only essay you have ?
-
Still collecting this issue after 45 years. Does anyone have any NEW ideas about this issue. Was the overprint and cancels done in Liberia or someplace else ? Also do you think the Szekula (Sekula) brothers had anything to do with this ?
-
On the 1921 issues most CTO dates fall in 1921, 1922. A few dates will be 1923, 1924, 1925. No dates have been reported in 1926, 1927. So any with a 1926 or 1927 date might be postally used. On 209-213 most CTO are in 1923. Some will be in 1924, 19…
-
Are there anymore than 6 copies ?
-
OK...I send you both the scans...hope you got them...Seredag and Bryant
-
Bryant asked about those 2 papers that Cockrill listed in booklet #21. I have copies of both if anyone would like a Xerox copy. Just let me know where to send them.
-
So I will close now and ask if there are more to report, please do so.
-
My copy came from Henry Chlanda, I guess yours came from Martin Nee. I wonder who got the other one from Martin ? Also in my first post I said they came from Marvin Nee...sorry about that Marty...I should said 'Martin Nee'
-
How many more are out there ?
-
Anymore info on this big red '2' ?
