Here is a set of 1976 Bicentennial Souvenir sheets with stamps of different denominations and perforation sizes. - I don't have these in my set as I was just beginning back then and did not have the funds at age 14. - I got what I could get. - These I have were actually issued on July 4th, just different years.

I have these on a first-day cover somewhere. I always liked them.
