If anything, the marihuana spelling adds value, since that's how it was commonly spelled then - note the stamps were printed in 1917 and then overstriked in 1937 ... that's why the date field in the receipt next to each stamp begins with "191"; the book cover adds value, since it puts the stamps into context; mentions both years.

Marihuana is a town in Spain isnt it?
