We didn't get any firm design decisions. Even the piece they showed us was just a possible option. It did have a couple nice vignettes of the...
At the ANA Anaheim show today, members of the Souvenir Card Collector Society got together with a couple BEP reps to discuss ideas for future...
It's been a pretty good show for me so far! Saturday I'll be around until midday. PM me if anyone wants to get together.
I picked this one up at a stamp show a few days ago for a buck! Under the assumption by the dealer that it was not genuine. I think it is, first...
That's a gorgeous sheet, Steve!
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing reduced the size of paper money in 1929, so this was one of the first small sized notes. The front looked...
MKent, I think my first MPC was the 5 cent from that same series. They are interesting items, aren't they?

And I found a couple OPAs, too! These were tokens put out by the Office of Price Administration. During 1944-45, they were given out as change by...
I have a leather ration book holder with Books 1 and 3, along with a collection of various ration coupons. Not something I actively collect, but...
I think these ration books were issued to families each year, so Book 4 would have been for 1945.
I limit my collection to intaglio engraved cards. The ANA cards are offset printed and not produced by the BEP or a bank note company, so they...
Mpcusa, I don't actually own any of the Defenders cards. How well do the colors match the real MPC?
Good link, old49er -- I used that site while I was researching this list!
Just do a search on eBay for "food stamp coupons."...
