Business Collegs used practice stamps for their students, thses were Revenue Stamps.
I don't know which college these stamps were from, does any SoR member know?
There is additional words but I can't make them out, any SoR member knows this?
These stamps are crude, I suspect they were very cheap to make.
I suppose these stamps were made during the Spanish-American War!

The only words I see are "Business College Revenue Stamp"
I see no other possible printed wording/lettering.

Your stamps are listed in "College and School Stamps" by James N. Drummond, 2007. There are a total of six pages in the chapter on these particular stamps. The rest of the article concerns over print on these stamps. No specific college is given, just Various Locations.

Jim (may he rest in peace) reported another, higher value of these stamps after the catalogue was published - a 5c in green.

This is slightly off topic, but does this, or any other catalogue, cover the stamps from Hilo High (Hilo, Hawaii) or Bannockburn (Elementary; Scotland)?
These were intended for internal use. I have some of the Bannockburn stamps (Cinderellas) but none on cover, though I've seen them. There are also Bannockburn stamps issued for a postal strike, but that's not what I'm after.
