Some of those stamps look rather old. I’d be curious to know when they’re from.

1940's/50's, sheets of these stamps are often sold at a discount to face value and are still fine to use on everyday mail.

All those 3 cent stamps reminded me of the movie "Fargo"

I love when my packages show up like that, since I'm also a stamp collector.

It didn't by chance have a Fred McGriff item in it (to go with the Crime Dog stamp on the front)?
