Philadelphia was one of the first post offices to
receive the new 1861 stamps, and so the 1857 Issue and old-style embossed envelopes. As a result they were demonetized by Philadelphia earlier than at many others. The new 1861 Issue embossed envelopes were announced as available on August 8, with a
five-day exchange period expiring on August 13. The new 1861 Issue adhesive stamps were announced as available on August 19, with a six-day exchange period expiring on August 25. After this date, the 1857 Issue stamps and old-style stationery were no
longer valid for postage. (Image1) |
