  Souvenir sheets are a little hard to define
Souvenir sheets have changed in appearance and intent over the years, and, like commemorative stamps, it's sometimes hard to tell what is a souvenir sheet and what's not.
Most of the souvenir sheets issued by the United States to honor national and international philatelic exhibitions are clearly described in the Scott specialized catalog.
The stamps on many of these philatelic souvenir sheets are imperforate; that is, there are no perforations around the stamp to allow it to be removed from the souvenir sheet.
