I received mail from the Mystic Stamp Company from Camden, New York offering 100 mint-fresh US stamps for $5 with free s&h.
I'm not much into stamp-collecting, but like to look at them.
One was a 4-cent 1962 Project Mercury, the first US man-in-space program.
Others: 1/2 cent Franklin from the 1938 Presidential series.
Six "Overrun Countries" from 1943-1944.
A one-cent Beardless Lincoln from 1959.
Very first "Love" stamp from 1973.
One "Honoring Those Who Helped Fight Polio."
An Ohio Sesquicentennial stamp
A 3 cents "Honoring Those Who Have Served."
3-cent Red Cross "Founded-1864"
1-cent Stamp honoring Jones of the Bon Homme Richard and Barry of the Lexington Revolutionary War Naval officers and ships.
One for Bunker Hill
22-cent Statue of Liberty Liberty 1886-1986
4-cent 1960 Pony Express
Quite a Bit of History in Those Stamps. --Cooter
