Plate Number Single of the Month:
Scott 2276a, plate number 2122 The "Plate Number Single of the Month" for July -- for Independence Day -- is the 22¢ Flag With Fireworks issue. Pictured is the variety from the booklet pane, Scott 2276a. Plate numbers 1111 and 2222 produced both the sheet stamp (Scott 2276) and the booklet pane of 20 (Scott 2276a), but plate number 2122 produced only the booklet. The plate number appears in both the UL ("upper booklet tab") and LL ("lower booklet tab") positions. Additional print control characters such as color blocks can also appear on the left tabs. ZIP and Copyright markings appear in both the UR and LR booklet tabs. It's not expensive, cataloguing less than twice the other plate numbers in both 2026 Hebert's and 2026 Durland -- not necessarily rare, but it is hard to find. Stop by your favorite dealer at your next stamp show and see if you can find a 2122 booklet pane nestled among the other treasures.
