	Revenue stamps present a dazzling selection
		It was soon discovered that these early adhesive stamps were being improperly reused to avoid paying the tax, so the British stamp commissioners decreed in 1701 that subsequent stamps would include a bit of metal that would pierce the center of the stamp before embossing to secure it to the document, somewhat like a staple.
		Revenue stamped paper was used periodically until 1902, but some revenue stamps are still used in the United States today, though not nearly as many as a century ago.
		Revenue stamps for migratory bird hunting are still created and sold today to pay a license fee, creating the very popular collecting specialty of duck stamps.

		The use of revenue stamps goes back further than that of postage stamps; the stamps of the Stamp Act of the 18th century were revenues.
		Their use became widespread in the 19th century, partly inspired by the success of the postage stamp, and partly motivated by the desire to streamline government operations, the presence of a revenue stamp being an indication that the item in question had already paid the necessary fees.
		Revenue stamps have become less commonly seen in the 21st century, with the rise of computerization and the ability to use numbers to track payments accurately.

	Revenue Stamp Mutilators
		According to a 1915 product announcement, "In accordance with the ruling of the Internal Revenue Department [on the War Tax Revenue Law], all revenue stamps to the value of ten cents or more must be mutilated with three parallel incisions, cut through the stamp after being affixed to the document.
		This is in addition to stamping the same with the initials of the user and date of use.” This legal requirement created a demand for devices, known as revenue stamp mutilators, that cut three straight or undulatory incisions through both the revenue stamp and the document to which the stamp was affixed.
		Attached to the underside of the end of the pivoting arm are three parallel vertical steel knife blades about 1” in length (measured side to side) and 1/8” apart.

	Stamp collecting has been one of the world
		Stamp collecting has been one of the world's most popular hobbies for well over 150 years because of one essential reason: the depth and diversity of the world's postage stamps allow the philatelist to collect in so many ways of one's own choice that they are simply too numerous to count!
		Stamps are also collected "on cover", i.e., stamps that are still on the original envelope or mailing wrapper used when they were sent through the mails.
		Stamps that have never been used (called either Mint---which means never having been hinged---or unused, meaning never having been used, but have been previously mounted in an album) are almost always more valuable than used stamps (ones that have been used on mail).

	Just for Kids - Stamp Condition and Worth
		Used stamps are stamps that have served their purpose of paying for the delivery of a letter, normally as evidenced by a postmark or cancellation.
		You would probably much rather own a stamp with a clear or a light cancel that does not obstruct the design on the stamp, rather than a stamp with a big fl blotch that makes it impossible to determine what the stamp shows.
		So a revenue stamp issued in the same quantity as an airmail stamp will likely be worth much less.
