Can anyone share some history and clarification on these forgeries? I have a set (forgeries) of all three from a reliable dealer. They have the "MONTEVIDEO 5 PM 8 MAR 1910 URUGUAY" cancellation but it seems there are several different forgeries out there. Any info on the 1981 set? Here are scans of the stamps showing the bogus cancellation. The block of four 1 Centisemos has been separated down the middle as shown. Thanks in advance!

According to Michel the stamps,issued Aug.23rd,1908 were valid till Aug.25th,1908, a mere three days.
