sumlng that you mean postage stamps,
they were first used in England with
the introduction of cheap postage in

sia In 1S45, in Switzerland in 1S46 and
in the United States by act of con-
gress March 9, 1847, the first Issued
being scent stamp bearing the head
OF Franklin and 10-cent one with a

are now rare and valuable. The re-
