These are the last ones (for now) that I finally got some time to scan last night. Once again, appreciate your help identifying them and any interesting factoids you can share! I tried to group them the best I could. TIA.  |

No need to apologize, vikingeck. I've made far worse ID errors on far more obvious stamps.  Yes, the actual stamp details are hard to see when there are so many in the pic with lots of white space between. I had to enlarge the pics to verify the different Spain/Possessions stamps. In the future, best to take a pic of no more than 2 rows at a time, so we can see the inscriptions and any necessary details more clearly. |
