SC #3095b - SCARCE USED RIVERBOAT SPECIAL DIE-CUT STRIP OF 5

Description

This is a "stock item" and I use a "stock scan" for identification purposes.  The quality of the stamp or cover you receive will match (or exceed!) the written description, though it may look slightly different from the item in the scan.
SC #3095b - SCARCE USED RIVERBOAT SPECIAL DIE-CUT STRIP OF 5
The Riverboats Special Die-Cut Issue was designed for use on Souvenir Pages and Posters...which were made in small quantities, so only 8000 Special Riverboat Die-Cut Sheets were printed. Whatever wasn't used for those projects was sold through the Philatelic Agency in Kansas City....after collectors became aware, by accident, that these existed. The strips were never commercially used. On January 6, 1998, a stamp dealer took a small quantity of RIVERBOAT POSTERS to a P.O. in Valley Stream, N.Y., had them cancelled, then cut the strips from some of the posters. There are only 2 ways you can get a used strip. This is one of them. The other way is to purchase a Souvenir Page. Last time I checked, the #1 Dealer in Souvenir Pages was selling them.....for about 0. Scott (2016) prices the used strips at .00, following the convention of never pricing modern used material above the mint...even when the used is much scarcer.
MINIMUM ORDER, PLEASE.
If you buy several lots, please load up the Shopping Cart and pay ONCE, when you're finished ordering.
PLEASE DON'T PAY AFTER EACH LOT.
Postage for multiple lots is always discounted; you'll never pay more than the actual shipping charges.
If you're buying several lots and the eBay checkout system hands you a postage bill which is off the charts, you can either:
1.  Request a total from me BEFORE you pay (in which case I can dig into their system and adjust the postage charge).... or
2.  Just pay the whole thing, and when I fill your order, I'll adjust the charges and send you a refund.
I'm a dinosaur on the internet, making my customers happy the old-fashioned way, just as I've done thru the mail since 1971.
SATISFACTION is ALWAYS  GUARANTEED!
As an ASDA member I stand behind what I sell.  Any item I fail to properly describe may be returned within 7 days for a full refund, plus shipping costs.

A FINAL WORD - ABOUT MY SCANS:
What you get will be BETTER than what you see!
Computer scans often show darker or lighter areas which aren't on the actual item, and the larger the object to be scanned, the more areas will be affected.
Plus, I scan using a "cover sheet" to hold the item in place, and the plastic cover can creates glare.
And, I often use shortcuts because I just don't have the time to scan every item I sell; I sometimes have to recycle an old scan to illustrate a new item.
ALWAYS GO WITH THE DESCRIPTION!
Your item may look a LITTLE different from the scan, but it will match the description 100%.....and it will ALWAYS be a top-quality item.
My feedback on EBAY speaks for itself.
