In 18S2 to help pay the enormous cost of the Civil War, Congress passed an act requir ing stamp taxes on all kinds of documents, ajid nicely engraved stamps were issued in many de nominations all featuring the Stuart portrait of the "Father of his Country." The nature of the document taxed was stated on all the val ues up to S25; hence stamps of the same denomination might be des'enated for bank checks, agreements. Bills of Iadine. etc. But before long desicnations were found to be Besides all these mentioned, i and other federal stamps taxes, all the states, as well as some cities. fi3ve had their own stamps. California was the first authority to issue documentary tax stamps in the western hem isphere. This started in 1857, and ran to a great many varieties. They were in use for some 70 years. Needless to say many of them are very scarce and val uable. Postage stamps first saw the light of day in England In 1840, in the U.S. in 1847. But revenue slamnc are mnrh older.

Hence the photograph tax which was levied some two vtars later than the original act may and often is to be found bearing stamps on their back designated as bank check, proprietary, tele eraph, etc., as no stamps were designated specifically for photo graphs. People run on to these even today, and naturally wonder if out color, similar to the well known notorial seal. Few have seer. them. All these classes of revenue stamps are avidly sought by the revenue stamp collector. Many do not stop with the U S., either, as all countries have their owe revenue stamps.

Among the series of 1862. in every way identical with the siamps tor documents, were stimps designated "proprietary." These were not documentaries, inasmuch as they were for use on "patent" or proprietary arti cles, mostly medicines, perfum ery and matches. After the first issue, stamp tax es were differentiated into two classes: documentary and pro prietary. Proprietary firms were authorized to furnish their own designs for government supplied tax stamps for their products. This tax. and the resulting stamps, were in use for several years after the war resulting in ninny odd and unusual stamps. Stamp Taxes In 1898, soon after the sinking of the Maine in Havana Harbor, Congress agaui enacted a War Revenue Act and appropriate stamps were put in use covering specifically documentary and proprietary stamp taxes. All the low values featured a battleship, and the lowest value proprietary really was low. namely 18 cent. The high value documentary waS SI. 000. died some time later, and the state took over his estate and had to sell my collection to sat isfy my loan. The heirs put it in i the hands of another dealer, who sold the collection to a Berkeley, Calif., collector for $1,000. When the collector died last year in his 90th year, another San Francisco dealer handled his estate for the heirs, and a prom inent revenue stamp collector in New York City asked me to go to San Francisco and examine the collection, paying my expen ses to do so. I appraiser', the collection and made a report to the New York collector, with the result that he bought it.
