Postage Due
At the top of the album page, Leuchtturm wrote a warning to collectors to be careful removing used stamps from envelops with water. It says colors are liable to run. That’s the first time I’ve heard of a problem with the ink used in printing stamps. Based on that, it might be even more difficult to determine the color of a used stamp I might have or find.
Note
Although I have only one stamp on this page, an unused one. I’m pretty certain I have it in the correct place. Of course, it’s difficult to discern the color vermillion from deep claret. As for the other stamps, the ones I’m missing, since this page is a low priority for me, it’ll be a while before I get them.
Contains 17 spots: own 1 – 1 unused, 0 used.

Footnotes
Spot refers to the postion of the stamp on the album page (e.g., 3.2 indicates row 3, position 2).
Amt. is an abbreviation for the face amount of the stamp.
Own indicates the stamp status: ✓ for unused; ✗ for used or canceled; ⭑ signifies I ordered one; ; ✨ indicates it was bought recently; ✠ means an auction bid is pending; and ◎ is used, and it costs too much for unused.
To search by catalog number, go to the search box and enter it in the catalog number box. However, it’s a bit broken; I need to fix it.
