Get Every Modern U.S. Imperforate Stamp Issued in 2016 at Once!
2012 was the first year the USPS issued a small number of commemorative stamps imperforate. Demand was strong and most issues sold out quickly, leaving many collectors empty-handed. The stamps were available only in expensive uncut press sheets from Stamp Fulfillment Services in Kansas City, Missouri. That only added fuel to the fire – collectors weren't happy being forced to buy an entire pricey sheet when all they wanted was a single stamp.
This continued for the next few years while the USPS sporadically issued imperforate stamps. Then in February 2016, it abruptly suspended the imperforate series. In 2018, as suddenly as the USPS had introduced the first modern imperforate stamps, they announced no further imperforates would be released. This was a big disappointment to the many collectors interested in owning these modern rarities.
In 2021, the USPS did an about-face and announced it would start issuing imperforates again. This time, the quantities were even smaller, in some cases just 3,000-5,000. Nobody but the USPS knows the exact numbers for sure. Compared to perforated modern commemorative stamps (issued in the millions), these numbers are incredibly small.
This is your chance to get all 15 modern imperforate stamps issued by the United States in 2016 in mint condition – in one easy, money-saving order! Given the scarcity of these stamps, you won't see many opportunities like this one. Hurry and send for yours today while they're still available and affordable!
Here are the imperforate stamps included:
US #5036a – 49¢ Love: Quilled Paper Heart
US #5040a – $6.45 La Cueva del Indio
US #5041a – $22.95 Columbia River Gorge
US #5042-51d – 49¢ Botanical Art (Two blocks of 4, 1 pair)
