Argentina - Buenos Aires 1858 Steamship Issue
Can anyone give me some pointers on how to determine if I have counterfeits or originals? I have Scott numbers 1, 2, 4 and 5. They seem to be printed on some kind of thin cardstock. They are imperf and without gum. TIA Boomerdude |

A scan would be nice, if we are to assist you.. Often items printed on card are proofs or cut from postal stationery items. Blair |
