Oswald is hired at Riley May 9, 1963. Oswald moved into the Magazine Street address on May 10, 1963. Oswald orders the handbills on May 29, 1963. That paystub is dated May 31, 1963. The first documented distribution of the handbills is June 16, 1963.
Looking at the handbills, it looks like either Oswald didn't know what address to use on 5/29/63, (unlikely since he already had an apartment but didn't have a P.O. Box) leaving the address blank, or he already had his stamp kit. He ordered 1000 handbills, so apparently he figures he was going to use a P.O. Box at some point later, and so leaves the address blank. At any rate, the handbills are printed without an address. The "later" handbills are stamped with the PO Box he obtains on June 3, 1963.
Since the paystub is 5/31/63, that looks fairly contemporaneous with the arrival of the handbills and prior to the first documented distribution. He could just be testing his stamp pad on the paystub. It is stamped twice.
Is there a similar stamp on the Jagger paystub? I also notice that there must be 2 more stamp kits, the "A.J. Hidell" stamp and the "Dr. Hideel" stamp kit, both with the PO. Box so they must date after 6/3/63.

No stamps on the Jagger stub... and we know he changed the stamp a couple of times...
Are we to assume the LAST address he used on the stamp was the last one he created? yet it still appears on the May 31, 1963 Reilly stub?
I realilze he could have used the paycheck stub as a test area for the stamp... just seems odd given all the other places he could stamp as well as the similarities to stamps we find related to Oswald on other documents..
Just found ir odd...

He would have received the pay stub on 5/31 or perhaps a couple days later. May 31 was a Friday. He orders the handbills, assuming the paycheck is coming, and obtains the handbills (and pays for them) the same day he is actually paid or shortly thereafter.
Both stamped handbills appear in the WC records:

Maybe he's figured he's going to get his teeth kicked in if he stamps the handbills with his real name and address.

So wouldn't that mean the stamp would be changed AFTER he uses his own name and address? So that by the time it is photogrpahed for CE115, the layout has been updated...
The way it appears, the 4907 address would be the LAST place he configured the stamp... doesn't make sense...

Oswald practiced with his new stamp kit on June 8, 1963.

Looks like Oswald pretty much just changed the stamp whenever it suited him.
