A stamp is poetry
Bounce numbers are useful when they describe an angle. They become superstition when they are asked to describe a print.
Hari will underline the stamp and then underline the millimeter card. If they agree, lovely. If they do not, the stamp loses. We have a drawer of heads whose bounce numbers are identical and whose films are cousins at best. Catalogs hate that drawer. We keep it anyway.
