Guatemala proof?

Ron Lenke

Just acquired this in an auction lot of central/south american stamps. It was listed as Guatemala 140 but doesn't conform to the color listed. It is ungummed . Is this a proof? Any value? I humbly await the wise counsel and tutelage of the Hipstamps gurus.

There are 2 listings elsewhere on the worldwide web with your same color scheme, described as a color proof.

I guess that's me!

I have some of these running, they are from K Bileski's estate. I got an envelope of "tidbits" leftover part sheets, poorly printed etc in a box of "stuff" from the Bileski estate liquidation.

I have several here on Hipstamp, an example:

Thanks guys, you exceeded my high expectations. I also realized I hadn't done my basic homework before posting. So here I am guilty of what I have often chided (in thought) others for. Never underestimate the collective (pun intended) knowledge here in these forums.
