I Do Not, Ever, Alter Scans!!)This American Advertising Poster Stamp Was Issued By The Pacific Gas And Electric Company (PG&E) To Promote A System-Wide Reduction In Utility Rates, Likely From The Late 1930s To Early 1940s, When PG&E And Other Utility Providers Frequently Used Advertising Campaigns To Publicize Price Drops As A Way To Encourage Greater Consumption Of Gas And Electricity. The Stamp Features A Striking Yellow Background With Bold Black And Red Lettering Announcing “Again Gas And Electric Rates Go Down,” Emphasizing Repeated Savings For Consumers.
