A beautiful series of stamps, and 100 years later two beautiful S/S reissues. I remember using the entire S/S's to send some packages.  Unfortunately, the other 9x$1 S/S (which is not shown above) was issued solely for the purpose of milking money off collectors.  |

Its a shame they didn't also re-issue some inverts. USPS did reissue the Pan American inverts in 2001 in S/S format. |

The inverted Jenny centenary is coming up this decade. Assuming USPS is still around, the odds should be pretty good that there will be some S/S issued.
Who knows, maybe by then I'll have gotten back into actively collecting modern US?! |

Those s/s are wonderful. That is the only way some of us will be adding those stamp images to our collection. I also like the cinderella on the Pan Am sheet, which I have used off cover. |

For others who may not know, it's named the "cinderella" stamp (even by Scott), but it's actually valid for postage. It paid the 1st ounce of the international (overseas) rate at that time. |

I am drooling... I would love to make the second one (wildlife conservation) my avatar! Would that be okay with you? How would I go about doing something like that? I've been trying to settle/decide on a stamp and I would love for it to be that one! (also it came out the year I was born)
