I found these in the batch from the flea market. I can't imagine these being the real deal, but is there any history behind them?

I think these are from the socalled 3rd set of forgeries. "fine distinct print on a poor quality yellowish wove paper. These forgeries were sold in American department stores."

Yep, that would be them. Thanks Jansimon, I've bookmarked that link for future reference.

Department store fodder, what a concept! It seems like, if this was meant to be an honest endeavor, they would have marked each stamp on the back.

Oh well, they're marked now.
