Get This Uncommon Beer Revenue Stamp
 
Rarely seen Beer Revenue stamps are fun to collect – they’re historic and feature intricate security printing like banknotes do.
 
Evidently Benjamin Franklin did not actually say or write, “Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy,” although he did say something similar about wine. Regardless of the origin of the quotation, it is a pithy summation of the relationship between God, beer and humans that dates back to the very beginnings of civilization. For example, some historians doubt that the pyramids of Egypt could have been built without the aid of beer. U.S. beer stamps are a very popular revenue stamp collecting specialty. Between 1866 and 1951, the United States issued about 200 beer revenue stamps. Missing from many collections, they are a neat addition- order yours today!
