I have enlarged that particular image which is rather small.
Based on that, I couldn't find any folds or tears either.
I think the case might have been that 6 stamps have their corners missing.
As for the others, I suppose they might have had either multiple short perfs, thins, or both.
It's difficult to say for sure with this image quality.
Discoloration from envelopes, while not dangerous like foxing/mould, is also frowned upon by some people. But the stamps which backs are shown don't seem to show significant discoloration.
