This is the first in a series of three issues (C42-44) celebrating the 75th anniversary of the formation of the Universal Postal Union. The design features the Post Office Department Building.

Before the formation of the Universal Postal Union, countries had to have postal treaties with each nation they wanted to carry international mail to and from. That meant a letter had to have stamps from each country it would pass through on the way to its final destination. The Universal Postal Union was formed in 1874 to simplify the process.

10 Mint unused postage stamps with original gum as issued by the Post Office. These stamps are genuine and valid to use as postage for current mailing. Be sure to use enough total postage to meet the current postage rate for mailing a letter if you want to use them for mailing.

Please be sure that the Mailing address provided to me by Etsy is your current address.

Also good to use for scrapbooking or displaying in a small picture frame. It's a miniature work of art.
