Default Q: Perforations of modern US definitives

'My catalog'?


Michel 1995. Not the most up-to-date, I know ...

Scott 2593 is 10x10; Scott 2593B, also black and apparently same issue
date, is 11x10.


A-ha! Problem solved ;-)

Scott rounds to nearest .0 or .5, perhaps not the nearest in the case of
.5. Perhaps '9.5' is close to 9.75?


Could be. The perforation looks a bit coarser than a proper "10",
but a perforation gauge printed on thin cardboard (even older
the catalog) may be a little out of gauge anyway.

Thank you!
