Contemporary Priority And Express Mail Stamps

I have just seen the next addition to the contemporary priority and express mail stamp series. When these stamps are seen together, they make a great display of the grandeur of the United States.

Yes many of the USPS series of stamps, when seen together do make a wonderful display. In days of yesteryear Scott would generally keep series together and update thru supplements. I liked that method very much but I think many people complained they had to remount their stamps whenever an annual update of the stamps of a given series was published. A few series, such as Distinguished Americans, Prominent Americans, Great Americans, Wildlife Conservation, & Black Heritage, I purchase duplicate stamps - one for regular Scott National pages and another mounted on Scott National blank sheets by series- cost is repetitively very low and I get to view all stamps together in one series - really nice and more meaningful to me when viewed in this manner. As far as the Priority & Express mail stamps, I have no idea why Scott placed them with regular stamps rather than Back of Book where I feel they belong like Air Mail, Special Delivery, etc., if they were there one could veiw them together as a series.
