New Air Mail Stamps Sought to Expand six Cent Issue

Washington December 24 Official word notes philatelists seek a new air mail stamp series to replace the present six cent issue. Proposals reached postal officials after the Washington stamp club endorsed them and sent to the national federation of stage clubs. Support aimed at winning federation approval before formal post office submission. The main aim is to address dissatisfaction with the limited air mail stamp options. Current offerings include two stamps at ten cents and one fifty cent special delivery, requiring use of six cent stamps for heavier parcels. There is speculation a special delivery air mail stamp may be withdrawn, though not yet considered by officials. Sales have exceeded expectations, prompting anticipated orders for additional prints after a prior stock withdrawal and plate changes noted.
