1030a Franklin 1/2c Bureau Precancel “Cincinnati Ohio” PSS-71, Dry Printing,  MNH OG

Scott # 1030a from the Liberty Series, 1/2c Benjamin Franklin sheet stamp, Dry Printing, May 1958, with Bureau Precancel “CINCINNATI OHIO” Precancel Stamp Society (PSS) Style # 71. Unused NH with full original gum. It was against postal regulations to sell mint precancelled stamps in this period to the general public. Only permit holders could purchase them from the post office. Thus, dealers would acquire them and remove the gum before selling them to their customers. Brooklyn is one of 36 cities printed by the Bureau on the Dry Printing of this issue. It's a fun challenge to collect them all!

Several available, you will receive one similar to the picture. 

I always ship on the next business day after payment has been received and always use real stamps on my mailings. 15 Year APS member and longtime collector. Please feel free to ask any questions. Moneyback if not satisfied less the cost of postage. I will gladly combine postage should you purchase more than one item. In that case, just wait for an invoice before making payment.

I am happy to leave positive feedback and hope you will do the same. If you have any issue, please give me a chance to resolve it!

Thanks for looking!
