I collect that series. Those are cardboard proofs, total catalog value $16. And with the stains, the pair might bring as much as $5.
Although there may or may not be a third stamp. He says you get all 3 shown.

PS: If anyone wants stamps like the ones in his other auctions, just ask. For the most part they're all cheap stuff.

Forgive my ignorance please, but why would these stamps even be cardboard proofs? I think we have almost got past everything in our card hobby, which isn't exactly like a perfect original, being called a "proof". I think we still have a ways to go though before we can get the E254-2 (Square Colgans) and E97-2 (black and whites) from NOT being referred to as proofs, which they clearly aren't.
