mis-aligned perf 14 through design on left stamp then re-perforated

left stamp perf 14x11x14x14 and right stamp perf 14x14x14x11 as the
patch between the stamps is ONLY PERF 11 on the reverse which was
it's purpose, to correct perforations to the vertical margin, the

the official patch gummed strip as a hinge reinforcement, an
