It has a Jumbo Margin with a little bit of American Bank showing. I already have a 206 in my album but this will look pretty cool beside it...

It's in good condition but I don't believe it qualifies as a true jumbo margin stamp. It's perforated out of skew to the L.R. HOWEVER what you do have there is proof positive that it is from the American Bank Note Company. Now it can be both correctly identified and studied much more in depth.
