Item Description
U.S. 8 Civil War Era Revenue Stamps UsedThese stamps were authorized by Congress in August 1861.
Their purpose, of course, was to help pay for the war. Everything they could think of was taxed, except such things as clothing and food.
The item being taxed is noted on the stamp.
The war debt wasn't paid off until the 1870's.
The Bi-colored 10 cent stamp is from the 2nd Issue of these revenue stamps, issued in 1871
These stamps are original, not copies or reprints!
These stamps are 160+ years old, so they are survivors.
Very Historic and Great for Framing!
If you win more than one lot, I'll combine for lowest postage.
