This Scott 223 By Authority Imprint Block is interesting in that it contains a known variety, ACSC 276d, "Spot in margin under L of POSTAL" in the third stamp, bottom row. You can see it quite easily, and it matches the illustration in the ACSC catalog quite nicely.
What is interesting is that there is another mark in the first stamp on the bottom row that makes the last L in UNIVERSAL look almost like a 4. I don't see this listed in my 2015 copy of ACSC, so it is either a simple ink mark, or my copy is too old. This would be in position LrSh 14/1, if my listing makes any sense at all. Any thoughts?
