"Dear Harald,

Stanley Gibbons is right: the two middle stamps can easily be identified as Spiro forgeries (made in Hamburg, Germany). They are quite common and can be distinguished very easily due to their bogus cancels. They were definitively not made by the Boston Gang (S.Allan Taylor and friends). These forgeries are listed in my stamp catalogue (together with forgeries of the other values of Straits Settlements made by Spiro).

By the way, you might be interested in buying my stamp catalogue on cd-rom. The catalogue contains information about most stamps issued from 1840 to at least 1920 worldwide, including locals, forgeries, fiscals, etc. The catalogue costs Euro 30 (shipping and handling is included in this amount). If you have Paypal, you can order the catalogue through:

Let me know if you encounter any problem, or if you have any questions.

Evert"
