Here is a better view of the perfin. Looks like SL & Co 11. 19. 42

re: State of New York stamp.

I have a Scott's US Specialized catalogue and the only state revenues listed there appear to the the "duck stamps" or hunting revenue stamps. All other state stamps must be listed somewhere because I am pretty sure I have seen Scott's numbers listed for some of them. With all the US experts out there I'm sure someone can put you onto the right catalogue.
I don't think they have a huge value, I have several of the sames types of New York stock transfer stamps you show and paid very little for them. Good luck!

re: State of New York stamp.

Actually, these are not listed in any Scott catalog and therefore
don't have Scott #'s.

Go to;
http://myplace.frontier.com/~ktk.lange/NewYorkStockTransferTax/NYSTT_album.htm

...then scroll down the page to the bottom image; you will see a sample of an album page -
note the numbering of the images.

These were catalogued by The "State Revenue Society - State Revenue Stamps Catalog"
and this is their numbering system.

I have an album for these, as I am a state revenue collector. I acquired my pages from this site, which are very well done. I would highly recommend them.

For the most part they are extremely affordable and are relatively easy to come by.

I would strongly recommend you use this site for identification purposes, as Kurt Lange (site owner) has done a wonderful job with it.

A word of mild caution;

they can be a challenge to properly identify all the potential variations!
(...but isn't that the fun of it?!?)

re: State of New York stamp.

I have literally hundreds of these which I have yet to sort through. Came with a US Revenue collection that was gifted to me. Thanks for the links to the NY State Revenue stamps Musicman. Happy
