Sentenced in Special Delivery Cancellation Racket
A clipping notes J L Van Valin of Lincoln Nebraska was sentenced to 60 days in Douglas County jail by Federal Judge Munger for leading a scheme to obtain low price stamps via Special Delivery with himself collecting the fee. Wallace Manion got a similar sentence and Ed Schulte ten days in Hastings jail. Stamps worth over 1190 were photographed at Postmaster Gillespie's office but released to Van Valin. The arrest charged collecting more for Special Delivery than due, not the plan itself. Also noted is a July 10 1934 patent grant to Frank T Wood for a machine to print post stamps and align impressions with perforations, potentially benefiting American Bank Note Company and stamp quality.
