Own an Authentic Remnant of the Confederacy –
Few stamps feel as directly connected to the historic events that produced them as those issued during the Civil War. Especially those stamps produced by the Confederate States of America. Now you can put one of those very stamps, and all it witnessed, into your collection.
Hold History in Your Hands…
As you know, after the attack on Ft. Sumter, all postal services to the South were discontinued. And all U.S. stamps were demonetized to prevent the South from using them. Owning a stamp resulting from the turbulent events that took place over the next four years brings those events into sharper focus. It’s truly like holding history in your hands.
Now’s the Time to acquire a Confederate Stamp for your collection
It’s miraculous that fragile old pieces of history like #CSA9 have survived the Civil War and the over 160 years since they were issued. Caring hands must have preserved them. Has the time come for you to treasure and preserve at least one of them in your own stamp collection? In my opinion, it’s a good time to get one for yourself, before more are damaged or disappear into someone’s permanent stamp collection.
A Northerner joins forces with the CSA to produce high-quality stamps and currency
Unlike the North, the Confederate states of America lacked the means to produce finely engraved stamps. Inferior stamps were printed by stone lithography and typography until engraver John Archer was successfully recruited from the American Bank Note Company by the CSA. Archer engraved the first of four 10c blue stamps bearing the profile of Jefferson Davis. The profile on the stamp bears a strong resemblance to Abraham Lincoln. As the story goes, Davis’ wife was not pleased the stamp because of that, and wanted the stamp withdrawn. In fact, another 10c blue stamp was produced shortly after, with a more life-like portrait of the Confederate president. This was possibly because the original copper plate had worn out. It was also a boon to postal workers who no longer had to read “TEN” spelled out, rather than quickly identifying the numeral “10”.
