Actually, in the early days of postal service, neither stamps nor envelopes existed. Envelopes were considered an extra sheet of paper which cost more to send. If you wanted to send a letter, you would simply fold it up and seal it shut, and the person who received the letter had to pay for its delivery. Since rates were usually very high, most people refused to accept letters. Actually, many people ended up developing secret codes they could use to cheat the postal service. For example, they\u2019d place secret marks on the outside of their letter that conveyed their message so all the recipient had to do was look at the letter and read the secret message, then refuse to accept the letter.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Ok. May have gotten a bit carried away with researching the history of stamps. You may be asking yourself, \u201cwhy does this all matter?\u201d Stamps have come a long way since the \u201cPenny Black\u201d and are now better than ever. 123Print has stayed on top of the ever-changing stamp world by revamping <a title=\"123Print Rubber Stamps\" href=\"http:\/\/www.123print.com\/Rubber-Stamps\" target=\"_blank\">our entire stamp offering.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>From return address stamps to large, customizable rubbers stamps to round monogram stamps, it\u2019s easy to customize the right imprints for your home or office.
