Do you mean as a picture to show the overprint?

The best way is a combination of using a scanner and some photo editing software. The one thing that helps is that overprints are usually a single, solid color, which allows you to 'erase' all of the other colors, leaving the overprint.

Rubber stamping is taking an image that is made into rubber normally mounted on a wood block and using it to create scrapbook pages, cards and other gifts. You take the stamp and ink it and then position your stamp as you want it to appear on the paper - then you take the stamp and make contact with the paper. Pull the stamp away from the paper and your image is on the paper!
