This one came in a lot from philatelia - I can only find that the lower left stamp with the plate number from this sheet (Scott 4033-4072) is the California Redwood (Scott 4063). Here it is the Saguaro (No. 4035), which is shown in position three of the sheet. Did someone spoof this up or what? If so, seems like an odd thing to do.

A spoof would be my best guess, too. gatodiablo Apologies for the awful marker cancel. I’ve been going through literally tens of thousands of these modern USA for those bulk, discount packets. I try to cull major faults, but I am better at catching big tears and such and don’t watch the cancels as closely. I do set the price for most of these at a penny or less a stamp to compensate for any faults I miss. Between heavy wavy cancels, unsoakable self adhesives and other problems, modern USA quality is much poorer in comparison to what I can offer for Japan, Austria or Scandinavia, thus the much lower prices for USA. For example, I’m currently selling 2000 different from 1990s through 2010s for less than a penny each. Hope the cover stamp arrived undamaged?
