This Edward VII 1 cent stamp id on the back of a post card from 1910. The Armouries (built 1900) in the photo was used by Dept. of Defense up until 2 years ago. It has since been declared a Heritage building and awaits a new use.

I really like the calligraphy! Very nice! I collected US first day covers for many years starting as a kid in 1969. I always preferred addressed covers which had actually traveled through the mail. IMHO these have so much more character than the unaddressed ones mass produced for sale by dealers. I still have many from the 70s which I prepared and sent off to the postmasters at the first day cities. I lost interest when they instituted the "grace period", so that the first day cancellation could be back dated and lost any significance.

I know these aren't valuable or anything, but I received them with a coin lot I purchased recently. I'll send them to anyone who wants them for free. Just email me. The first response will get them.

My dad has a large collection from when he was a kid, but stamps have never interested me

Are there any plans for a Neil Young stamp? How about Steppenwolf? (anyone remember Born to be Wild?)
