tbobthe toy town stamp to me is a back stamp and is not an overprint since it does not make references to anything, like the e94 overprints or e98 Old Puts. They are found on various backings of different e and t issues and does not carry any extra premium to me. I would not pay more, and consider them a deterrent like the other initial back stamp of previous owners.>
I couldn't have said it better myself. If the Toy Town stamp is given some kind of noteriety by SGC than what about the Gillian Squires stamp which is seen on the back of so many Obaks. Maybe I should submit my M116 Sporting Life cards which have Buck Barker's scribbled notes on the back of otherwise exmt cards to SGC and go for the "Buck Barker collection" notation on the front...This is all getting crazy. First that dorky "Mr.X" on the PSA slabs, now this. Sheesh.
