The non-perfed stamps, as a set, are roughly listed at about 40% more than the perfed stamps.

I have searched a bit but haven't found one yet. My interest is in Flags and Cinderellas in particular. These could fit both subjects !
@ londonbus1 - I am certainly willing to sell, but am still not completely sure of a fair asking price. The only other example I have ever seen in many hours and days of searching was as single 35F one listed on the Delcampe site for $27.50, but I have no idea if it actually sold for that. If you care to make an offer...
