Look at where the word NOTICE is positioned in relation to the words below it, most noticeable the N in NOTICE to "is" in the sentence below. Also look at the ending of the last word in the copy, pictures, and how it is positioned to the D in WORLD. The stamp used in the three examples you use are different than the "mid 1940-s - 1954" stamp. I don't know if this means you have discovered a new stamp, a variety of an older stamp, or...?
