Book Description
Hundreds of U.S. stamps are issued commemorating significant events in United States history, and several have been issued celebrating holidays. Readers are provided the stories behind these stamps and other exclusive historical data in this new updated edition. Sections on revenue stamps, stamps from U.S. territories, Confederate States stamps, and U.S. stamps used as money during the Civil War--as well as many other unusual stamps--show the fascinating uses of these common items.
