The perforated gutter in the upper right stamp is known as a "gutter snipe". A very nice example, Ryan! The format in which they are collected will depend on the type of gutter. Usually, they are a production anomaly rather than intentional, and would therefore fall under the category of EFO. Excellent info, and pretty much in line with what I had suspected (in short, it isn't supposed to be that way). I found a second example in the same pile but it wasn't as good - the example I show has pretty much an exact 1/2 hole showing at the edge of the gutter, but the second example only has maybe 20% or so, the cut almost missed the perfs completely.
