Description: This is a "stock item" and I use a "stock scan" for identification purposes. The quality of the stamp, card, cover, or other philatelic item you receive will match (or exceed!) the written description, though it may look slightly different from the item in the scan. Please see the GREEN PRINT at the bottom for an explanation. PLEASE ADD MY NAME TO YOUR LIST OF "SAVED SELLERS" SO YOU CAN BE NOTIFIED WHEN I LIST EITHER NEW AUCTION LOTS OR NEW STORE ITEMS. STAMP POSTER SP285 Sc.#1433 8c JOHN SLOANE PAINTING - UNFOLDED USPS STAMP POSTER - the EARLY YEARS USPS Stamp Poster SP285 - Scott Page #SP285. The stamp is Scott #1433, the 8c John Sloane Painting stamp. Excellent condition, and UNFOLDED. These EARLY STAMP POSTERS were printed by the U.S. Gov't Printing Office. First issued in 1959, they were intended to be hung (usually with Scotch Tape or thumb tacks!) in Post Offices as a notice of upcoming releases. When stamp collectors learned of their existence the USPOD established a service for selling them thru the Philatelic Agency. They were sold mint, usually folded in 3rds, and it fell to the collector to get them First Day Cancelled. Thus, many different combinations of stamps exist on these pages. Scott calls these "Unofficial" Souvenir Pages. This is a terrible name; you can't get much more official than these. The price listed in Scott is for FOLDED posters; UNFOLDED posters command a premium...which can be a little or a lot, depending on the issue. PLEASE NOTE: For these early Stamp Posters, "excellent" does not mean "perfect". Too many hands were involved in the making of these Posters. A MINOR dent, ding, crease or slighly blunt corner here or there is to be expected. MANY MORE Souvenir Pages and Stamp Posters are listed in my Ebay Store. CLICK HERE to view. I'm a dinosaur on the Internet, making my customers happy the old-fashioned way, just as I've done thru the mail since 1971.

I WILL ALWAYS DO THE BEST I CAN FOR YOU ON THE SHIPPING. For worldwide orders, shipping costs have gotten out of hand in recent years. I'll always do the best for you I can. Just stay away from anything heavy or large. A FINAL WORD - ABOUT MY SCANS: What you get will be BETTER than what you see! Computer scans often show darker or lighter areas which aren't on the actual item, and the larger the object to be scanned, the more areas will be affected. Plus, I scan using a "cover sheet" to hold the item in place, and the plastic cover sheet can create glare. ALWAYS GO WITH THE DESCRIPTION! Your item may look a LITTLE different from the scan, but it will match the description 100%.....and it will ALWAYS be a top-quality item. My feedback on EBAY speaks for itself.
