Your booklet was issued in April 1980 (Michel booklet no.22I). 39.500.000 booklets were printed.
You can see that it is booklet 22I easily,by the cutting-marking on the selvage on the left side.It is black-violet. The similar booklet 22II from 1990, - stamps now printed in letter-set-print -,has a yellowish-green marking.

Found this booklet in my late dad's boxes......cannot find Scott # - would appreciate your help René, if you would specifically like the Scott reference, it is #1231b #1231a, shown in Scott, at least, as issued between 1977-1979. Hope this helps! Edit: Sorry about the earlier mistake, pointed out correctly by salentin. I had mistaken the wrong 50pf stamp in the pane. Scott does list these, but in such a way that it can be very difficult to find them and identify them accurately based only on their catalogue. I had to do some web-searching even just to get myself to the right place in the catalogue to find these in the first place. The addition of more stamps of the same style in 1980 after the original set is shown in 1977-1979 only adds to the fun! |

Hope this helps! - my eyes could not focus on a particular booklet stamp from Scott 1231a since only the 20 1232 was shown in my Standard Postage catalogue (6 volumes) Re-edited my post Appreciate also Xavier's help and Salentin's  you all ! |

Scott 1231a or Michel 22I René You won't find all these varieties of booklets in Scott's, only in specialized catalogs The booklet you have comes in about 50 different variations depending on year issued, the way the stamps are configured and the advertising on the booklet. Somewhat complicated.
Most are in the $5-$10 range CV with a couple of very rare expensive ones.

, you are absolutely correct. Thank you very much for pointing this out. René ( renden ), Salentin is right. Your booklet pane is Scott #1231b not a. The 50pf value is of Erzlingen and not Neuschwanstein. I will correct my earlier post to fix this. |
