Welcome to my contribution to Sunday Stamps. Spring is really here in the American Midwest.
The theme this week is green.
I have some humble, everyday stamps, from years ago:
However, they sent many many postcards on their way, in the days when it cost a penny to send a postcard. I have seen many of these stamps.

Two fantastic classics. I like the contrast between the two styles.
Classic stamps - I would never have thought of looking for these.
I wouldn't call these humble! Very nice choice.
I've often thought it odd that the USPS thought it necessary to add the word 'postage' to their stamps.
VioletSky:
Other state and USA stamps were used to indicate taxes had been paid (on alcohol, for example). Maybe that is why.
