Most of the stamps in this set come with two different perforations, maybe more. I believe that it was common practice for the early Austrian stamps to come with different perfs.
I have one stamp exactly the same with six different perf. all the way from 9 to 13, I mean the perfs. are so obvious that you don't even need a perf. gage to tell them apart.

Compare the perfs. from the first stamp, left,
to the last, right.

Interesting, thanks! Odd that the catalogues don't mention these perf ranges.

My copy of Austria Scott No. 296 from the Symbols of Art and Science series is perf 12½ x 12. That seems to be an anomaly, as I only find it listed at perf 12½. Has anyone else seen this?
Thanks,
Hugh
