    These were a rare find! The Orange Premium Stamps had very limited distribution and use. The company was owned by the Alfred M. Lewis wholesale grocery group in Bakersfield, California in the early to mid 20th century.

    The Orange Premium Stamps were pretty much only seen in Southern California and Arizona. The company was gobbled up into Price Club (now Costco) around 1990.

      Are the Alfred M, Lewis stamps, orange color or other colors, of any value?
