Stamp of Approval

11/21/2014

 
My parents are moving and have been sorting through boxes they've stored in my basement.  One thing we found was my grandmother's collection of First Day Issue stamps.  Three binders full.  None of us knew what to do with them or if they have any value.  So I turned to my good friend the Internet for a little research.

While it seems the collection may have little dollar value, the stamps themselves were a bit of surprise.  I expected the typical binder with rows of little postage stamps attached to each page in rows. The kind I had when I was a girl.  Instead I found some examples of beautiful colorful art in an unexpected place.

I hadn't known either. They were a fun surprise.
