Download or read book Every Stamp Tells a Story written by Cheryl Ganz and published by Smithsonian Institution. This book was released on 2014-12-02 with total page 415 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every stamp and piece of mail tells a story. In fact, each often tells multiple stories, ranging from concept to art design to production to usage, often with tales of politics, history, technology, biography, genealogy, economics, geography, disaster, and triumph. The lens of philately offers a fresh and engaging story of American history, culture, and identity, and it can also help deepen the understanding of world cultures. The William H. Gross Stamp Gallery, opened at the Smithsonian National Postal Museum in September 2013, has many such stories to tell. Chief philately curator Cheryl R. Ganz guides readers through some of the gallery's nearly 20,000 objects that together illustrate the history of our nation's postal operations and postage stamps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Postage stamps have evolved quite a bit since Great Britain’s 1840 Penny Black, the world’s first adhesive postage stamp. From simple designs featuring the monarch to works of art literally condensed to postage stamp size, hundreds of thousands of different stamps have been issued in the past 164 years—and the great majority of them remain reasonably priced for collectors.

Interested in starting a stamp collection, but not sure where to begin? This is the guide for you. Expert Richard Sine fills you in on everything you need to know about selecting, finding, buying, presenting and caring for stamps.

Download or read book Federal Civil War Postal History written by James W. Milgram and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to present the postal usages which were associated with the federal or Union troops and patriotic civilians during the American Civil War 1861-1865. This is in contrast with those postal usages that were associated with the Confederate States of America and its soldiers, a very strongly collected area of specialization. With the production of patriotic stationary, both envelopes and letter paper, the Civil War created a large variety of collectible federal postal objects used by both civilian and military. The postal usages of Union soldiers include special due usages when letters were certified by officers, interesting maritime mail from both coastal as well as inland river locations, hospital and prison mail, and specialized postmarks which are either patriotic or which deal with certain military camps and reoccupied town. Other chapters include slave related stationary, the election of 1860, and federal postage usage in the South during the formation of the Confederacy.
