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.
