Long historical piece traces the evolution from early letters to prepaid stamps. It notes the 1840 introduction in Britain and the later US adoption in 1847, with rates dropping from six cents for short distances to two cents by 1883. It highlights key figures like Rowland Hill, James Madison Buckle, and quotes on stamps as civilizational boons.
