USPS Opens Store on eBay, Will Auction Rarities

The Postmaster General’s Collection began in the 1860s as a modest set of Post Office department files filled with records and a small sampling of stamps, and continues to evolve today. Now, thousands of stamps later, the archive has become a stamp collecting resource with unusual, rare and unique holdings. To preserve the integrity of the collection, the USPS said that only duplicate items will be auctioned.
