Description: 10 Mint Never Hinged Blocks of Two Eatons Fine Letter Papers American Bank Note Company 1939 Views Of New York Engraved Stamps In 1938 Eaton Paper Company contracted The American Bank Note Company to engrave plates and make a series of 10 label stamps which were to included in their paper offerings for 1939. The engraved scenes depict views of New York City and advertising for Eaton's Fine Letter Paper. This offering was to be released in 1939, the year the World's Fair opened. Unfortunately these labels looked so much like stamps that people were putting them on letters. The postal department got involved and Eaton was told to discontinue the stamps. American Bank Note Company destroyed the printing plates. Only a limited number of these stamps are available. The centering on these stamps is superb, they have full gum and they have never been hinged. We have Singles, Doubles, Blocks of 4 and a very limited amount of sheet sets available. Stamps will be shipped in a glassine envelope in a rigid mailer. Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
