Great cover with the big red '2'. Thanks for the post.
-
Sounds like a great idea. I will add dates when it's ready to use.
-
I guess no more to add ? Does it stop here ?
-
Anybody have any more to add ? Lets keep it going ?
-
Here are more photos to add. The 1st one is a inverted overprint, 13 dots at the bottom The 2nd one are 2 blocks of 4 with shifted red colors, two distinct colors. On the block of 4 on the right you will find that the bottom left stamp has one of th…

Thanks Manfred for showing these. I will look over my stamps and see if I have any others like yours. I guess it's down to you and me to add items to the forum ?
-
Does anyone have any more items to add on the "Mustard" colors ?
-
Here is a scan of a block of 10 of #64. It has the CTO2 cancel and a vertical line that was made during printing. Has anyone else seen one like this ?

mikwizzy After 45 years of collecting Liberia…you just pick up a LOT of info. Also must of what i know was picked up during the 'hay days' of the LPS years ago. Not the LPS that we have now. Those were the 'good old' days of LPS. I wish it was lik…

mikwizzy F35,E1,CF1,280-282,C14-16 are always around for sale. Many dealers ask high prices for them. Just look around on ebay i'm sure they pop up sometime. The errors were made to sell as far as i know. Maybe Manfred has more info on them.
-
Travis I checked out those covers. I wonder how George got them ? His prices on Liberia are always high. Most of his lots on ebay on stamps are just too high for anyone to pay. But i'm sure those Cockrill covers will sell, but for what price ?
-
mikwizzy Are you saying the whole set has the inverted '1921' ? What about #201 the 20c cent one ? Is that one inverted or upright ? If you can send a scan on that one. Thanks…Albert

Manfred Here is a 64 used with a cancel of 16 SEP 99 from Harper. The word 'Inland' has been marked with black ink of some kind. It's hard to tell if 'Inland' was marked out before the postmark or after ? Do you also have one like this ? If so ple…

Here is a scan of #128 used with a Monrovia cancel of '6 X 20' with the 12 1/2 perf. These ones are hard to find postally used. Does anyone have one like this? Let me know.
-
Here is a scan of a #128 i just got. It has a cancel of '6 AUG 1914' from Monrovia. The cancel looks like the same cancel that is found on the used copies of #129-133, 072-075. So does that mean that #129-133, 072-075 cancels were done in Liberia ? …
-
Not sure how much money was done by selling CTO. I do know that after 45 years of collecting Liberia i see more CTO sets than mint sets. Every collection i see or every stamp set the used is always CTO more than mint or more than postally used. As a…
-
Manfreddo you have a scan of the 2016 catalog 1840-1940 ?
-
I'm sure Manfred has a lot on info on the CTO cancels. As far as i know the CTO's were not done in Liberia. CTO's were put on stamps to make them sell for less than mint stamps. Liberia was one of the leaders in selling CTO stamps.
-
That'a the Scott Classic Specialized Catalogue 1840-1940 which covers the whole world from A to Z for those 100 years. It shows a little bit more info, but is priced at over $120 i think
-
It's better to read Philip Cockrill's booklet #9 pages 17-19. Scott has always been wrong on everything to do with Liberia. I have many copies of #0155 showing a postmark of 1923. Scott has the date as 1926. They have had that date for years. I thin…
-
Does anyone in the group have a #64 or #128 ? "Mustard" on cover or postcard ? If so please post a photo of it. In fact if you any "Mustard" stamp that has a postmark on it please show it.
-
If you have anything to post, please do. We need all we can get. Right now there is only a small number of us who seem to post info on Liberia. So please join us anytime. Manfred has done a lot of work on this site. We need a group to keep it going.
-
I guess only Manfred, Travis, mikwizzy and myself have any info to put up on this site. Too bad. I know there has to be others who have a little more info on 64 and 128. Let's all try and take out a little time and find something on these two.
-
Ok…one more time. Here are 2 diff #128's with green overprint shift. One to the left and one to the right. Also is a postally used block of #64. The date looks like Harper AU 4 69 to me.
-
More to show. Here is a #64 specimen. A little diif from yours. What other stamps of #64 and #128 do you have Travis ? Also do any other members of this site have anymore to show. Let's keep it going.
-
Sorry the stamp on the left is a #128a. Manfred sent me a email about that. His said most of the #128a have a light red color. Thanks Manfred. I will look at my collection of #128 and see if i have any with light red color.
-
Here is a scan of 3 diff red printings of #128. From left to right we have Light red Normal red Dark red Does anyone have anymore to show ?
-
These two stamps #64 and #128 are two of my favorite stamps from Liberia. For over 45 years i have hunted for them. The true errors are small in numbers but like other stamps from Liberia there seems to be good amount of so called 'printers waste'. …

Here are 3 more scans. #128b deep green shade. 2 #128's both with triple overprints.
