Here's a picture from the auction showing the odd CC.
Below is a picture of the bounced CC from a friends 6,2 mil Inland..
As you'll see........... That's no INLAND STAMP !!

Charlie, I had to get out my 5.2 Inland. You're right and I stand corrected.
I don't think the seller is trying to fool us, I just think he is miss informed.
So who's CC is that?.....Frank

[Wulf]

Honestly, the stock is so damaged that I don't think it is worth anything anyway.

My 5.2 Inland CC, just like your friends Charlie....Frank

I checked both WB (pg 315) and Riecsh and it doesn't seem to match anything. I hate to say it, but could the "double bounce" be a newer, recent stamp placed over an old one?

[painter777]

Agreed with Wulf, the stock is of little value.
Also agreed that I don't think the seller is trying to mis-lead anyone.
I've been blowing this picture up and playing with color shades.
I believe this larger stamp was added at some time. My guess...... a poor Inland reproduction stamp. Was thinking at first... could it be a early QHMC Bigwheel? It isn't, but it's possible that the area I've circled could be the remnant of a real Stan Pro CC.
Just guessing on my part. But the size and location would be close.

Charlie, I think you are onto something there.

Fun mystery to try and figure out on a slow Sunday. Cheers.....Frank

I can almost see the SP CC in your circle.

Charlie I DO believe that is a Standard Products cartouche.
