CZ PERFINS  -- OFFICIAL PERF “P” (updated 9/411)

CZ Precancels!

All numbers are from CZSG Handbook #6, by L. Entwistle or CZ Stamps, by Plass, et al.

 

We have many, many more precancels but don’t have the time to list them, so please send your wantlists!

 

The used ones were used in parcel service, so condition often tends to be rough – all are as described if defects are obvious.

NH ones are of course unused and in mint condition unless noted.
