One
thing that couldn’t be beat when I was a kid was the rare treat of
going to see a scary movie… the kind that raised the hair the back of
your neck. Who can forget sitting in the dark being scared to death by
the bloodthirsty Dracula or the terrifying Mummy? When I look at the
Classic Movie Monsters stamps, I’m back there, reliving those thrills
and chills. Do you have the five most famous movie monsters of all time
in your collection?

In
1871, the government established two separate classes of stamps –
Documentary and Proprietary, which made stamp production and accounting
easier. Documentary stamps, which paid the fees on a wide variety of
documents, would continue using the R-numbers already established, while
the new Proprietary stamps would be RB. The first RB Proprietary
stamps were issued September 2, 1871. Get the full story here.
