1915 Postaco stamps- Printing process
Picked up these ancillary pieces, which show the printing process, to go with circa 1915 Postaco Baseball stamps. Thought they are kind of interesting, so figured I would share. There are Postaco Mack and Baker stamps at bottom. (they are all the same physical size though the scans differ)

Since you started a thread on them, I was wondering just how popular/rare these things are and what is the actual size? Do the backs have glue? I saw a Dots Miller one on ebay, only example I've ever seen but I really don't want it if it's just the size/thickness of a normal postage stamp. I like the fact it's the only one I've ever seen, but if it's just a regular stamp, don't think I can pay the price

They are approximately 2" x 2" and are scarce but not all that rare. Commons should be in the $25-$45 range. I think they do have glue on their reverses, as normal stamps do. I will have several for sale soon, all yellow, but alas no Miller .

Here is the only one I've seen for Miller, also just saw in the description there are two different colors to it. Couldn't pull the trigger on it at that price, especially with the surface scratch.
