13-hole Punch by
George
I am looking for a 13-hole punch to match the holes in Lighthouse
pages. I kinda remember this discussion (or one similar) several years
ago in this group. Think they were available in Europe. But maybe
that was on a day after too much watermarking with those strange
chemicals.
TIA,
George

Blair (TC)
Can anyone please identify the following,
stamps from Iran, for me?
http://cjoint.com/data/dxbD7Vgm3Q.htm
