Choose Option:

  World’s Second Postage Stamp
Much Scarcer than Penny Black!

The Two Penny Blue was first used on May 8, 1840, just two days after the world’s first postage stamp, the Penny Black.  Although the Penny Black is much more famous, the Penny Blue is every bit as historic and desirable – PLUS it’s nearly 10 times scarcer!

Because the historic issue was printed in sheets with very narrow margins between the rows of stamps, even fewer Two Penny Blue stamps survive with one to two margins intact.  

The beautiful Two Penny Blue is surprisingly affordable.  The stamp will arrive secured in a museum-quality mount affixed to a specially designed page.
