Here is a link to another discussion on the Bethlehem misspelling.

Is it a misspelling on a stamp at the store or is it a fake?

I noticed that a Bethlehem pedigree 8.0 was sold in Nov 2010. However, the Cert # no longer exists, The date the comic was published may indicate that it is was a misspelled stamp but I'll investigate further with CGC and anyone else that may have knowledge about this.

That Haunt is one of my dream books. 

Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't catch that nor did CGC. I'll leave it up as is. A buyer will get a nice upgrade to a pedigree on a resubmit. Or if it doesn't sell I'll resubmit. 

C. Spaulding has pointed out that the spelling of Bethlehem is incorrect on the stamp. The stamp has "Behtlehem". So most likely this is not a Bethlehem pedigree. 

That's going to do it for this thread.

Happy hunting!
