refers to kitchen-related objects created from metal, typically tin or thin steel, and are often painted in decorative styles from the Arts and Crafts movement or the Pennsylvania Dutch style; this style of decorative painting originated in France, where the French term "tðle peinte" is used to describe the technique; it spread to the United States in the 18th century, and was popular in US kitchens in the 18th and 19th centuries, such that it became a form of "Americana Art;" serpentine die cut simulated perforations: 9¾, issued with non-water soluble gum on self-adhesive panes, photogravure printed, 5 cents, multicolored, Scott 2019 Catalog Value: 25¢, slightly off-centered,
large, very light, three-quarter circular, hollowed-out, broken-up, red-inked, double-rimmed socked-on-the-nose cancellation over the main image, however, the lightness of the cancel and the broken-up and hollowed-out effects leaves the main image largely clear, stamp was issued pressure-sensitive adhesive panes, this stamp was soaked from the mailing envelope using the Bestine solvent and placed, first on a piece of white paper for a color contrast, and then on a piece of black trimmed card stock for an attractive album mounting, good perforations; mounting, centering, and clear cancel warrants a selling price premium. This is not a 'bait-and-switch;' the stamp you see will be the one you receive.
Please review my terms of sale. If you are not ordering from the United States, there is a $US1.50 additional postage expense that needs to be added to the price of the stamp. If you are ordering from the United States, there is only a $US0.66 added postage expense. Also, if you make additional purchases from my offerings, they can all go in one mailing at no extra shipping expense for the added purchases. I will send the purchase by US first class mail, since the relatively low value of the stamp does not warrant signature or tracking mail. Hence the buyer assumes risk of loss or non-delivery. I will keep a scan of my mailing to verify that the correct mailing address was used. If not satisfied, return the stamp to me at your own expense, and I will refund the cost, but not my postage to you. If the stamp is not as described, I will refund the cost and reimburse you for postage both ways.
By way of reference, I am an American Philatelic Society member (195176) and an American Stamp Dealers Association (ASDA) member. Thank you for looking, and I hope this is the perfect stamp to fill that gap in your collection.
