(Genuine, images obtained from a Siegel auction)

Only about 8 stamps exist of the Bouton's Manhattan Express, the colour is black on pink.
I think the next stamp is a bogus issue:

(Bouton's Manhattan Express, bogus? I have seen the same stamp in red)
Bogus stamps with inscription 'BOUTON MANHATTAN EXPRESS' were issued by the forger Taylor:

Taylor forgeries, reduced sizes

(Genuine, reduced size, image obtained from a Siegel auction)

Two types of these stamps exist; with leaves in the corners and with dots in the corners. They were issued in 1848 in the colour black. I've heard of a 'PAID' cancel on red on these stamps.

(Genuine stamp on envelope)
Forgery of this stamp (I'm not quite sure if the all of the above stamps are genuine):

Reprints made by Hussey:


(Reduced sizes)
Reprint in the wrong colour:

(Genuine, reduced size, image obtained from a Siegel auction)
There are only about 15 stamps known to exist of these stamps (see http://www.siegelauctions.com/1999/817/yf81795.htm#107 ). Probably forgeries or reprints:

Taylor forgery with no background lines behind '2 CTS':

Taylor also made bogus colours of these stamps (all in the value 2 c): black on grey, black on yellow and black on red.
