Thirty days has September
Also June and November.
All the rest have 31
Except February, it's a different one
It has 28 days clear, and 29 each leap year
Oh yeah, and April, which had (at least?) 41 days back in 1958.

Dyslexic drum builder on April 14, 1958 who finished his or her work a couple of weeks after the person who did his or her work at the end of March, 1958.
No matter how far you push the envelope, it is still stationery.

Or it was stamped on April 1st and someone did "41" as an April Fools Joke.

My take is two folks doing the stamping and different roller date stamps. MAR 28 1958 is mashed on the 1958 (pressing too hard).
APR 41 1958 is mashed on APR. The font appears larger on this one. Without serious mucking about in PhotoShop can't confirm.
Just another "The heads will hide it day" :-).
Very cool. Thanks for taking the time to post.
