1980 LETTER WRITING SCOTT #1805-10

In 1980 the U. S. Post Office printed an unusual sheet of sixty 15 cent stamps with the theme of "Letter Writing". What makes this sheet so unusual is the different size of stamps and the different coloring. There are 3 different pairs of stamps. Each pair consists of one large stamp and one small stamp. The large stamp carries out the theme of the pair with a saying like "Letters Preserve Memories", "Letters Lift Spirits", and "Letters Shape Opinions". The smaller stamp in the same colors reads "P. S. Write Soon". This unusual sheet is offered on a 7 day auction beginning 9-5-13, with a starting price of 99 cents. To go to auction click here.
