_===============================_
_ note that some minor stamp flaws may be present that do not adversely affect the appearance of this classic stamp or its fancy cancellation._ _ according to cole, some strikes may appear identical to others and have similar format, but actually exhibit slightly different dimensions, for example. These minor variations occur frequently with hand-carved designs because the original carved impression becomes damaged or otherwise unusable, and the designated "post office's carver" produces an extremely similar, but not perfectly identical replacement. Cole further acknowledges that the catalogue tracing may represent a second or later generation of a particular design although professional cataloguers make every attempt to publish an exact representation of the original version whenever it is available [either...Preferably on-cover...Or if necessary, off-cover]._
