I used to clean probate homes for awhile, the best job in the world :) when I came across this envelope, with card enclosed (shown) and another one I will post next.
Anyway, something about it struck me so I kept it. As a matter of fact, we got to keep anything we wanted-how ya like me now??? ( yee-ha!, sooo fun)!
Back to the stamp, as there is so much info to know and I actually do have quite a few stamps but the more I try, the more confused I get, to the point where I just stock them away again. I have checked the "Scotts" info but still lost. I notice that it's slightly "offset", don't know if that means anything significant and I don't know if this is considered red, carmine, etc... So, now that I'm here and have great respect for the vast amount of knowledge amongst you all, I've decided to post and ask if someone wouldn't mind sharing whatever info you can throw my way...it's greatly appreciated.
Thanks all!!!
Go for the value of the card, the stamp won't get you a bite of a big mac.
Pre-1922 U.S. stamps are a whole new ballgame - there are many variations and values vary greatly. The postmark date is a great help in these circumstances.
Thanks agh...I was hoping this would be the case. That is if there was value there. If not, I love the nostalgia of it anyway.
fhrjr2, could I at least get a toy from a happy meal???
You have access to Scotts. Go for the card the happy meal will follow. You already researched Scott database so get on with the card, You may hit an order of fries. Who knows?
