Thank you, Randy. Your links tell a much different story, and a plausible explanation for these "stamps." I thought somebody here on Stamporama would know.

My "story" came from the glassine envelope that contained these reprints, as scanned below. It did not make sense, as Paul stated in his post. I guess an embellished story sold more stamps,for more money, back in the day. Kind of shady, if you ask me. By the way, I bought these out of the nickel box, for a grand total of ten cents for the pair.
