I can't tell you the release dates or how long they were used but we have a bunch of the 3 & 4 cent ones. I remember using them around the late 50's & early 60's. I looked them up at one point and figured in another couple hundred years their value might double.
Thank you, fhrjr2
that would be on a will for the great- great gradkids :)
Hi Sean, Thanks for stopping by.
As I remember (I may be wrong) the green stamps were replaced in 1954. They are pretty easy to research to find out issue dates etc. I have a stamp collection book I got in 1958 and have saved stamps all my life but the book sits in the original box and I have stamps from all over the world in bags. It just never interested me enough to look them all up. My post card collection is a different story.
Thanks packrat-place
