Greetings From A New Member.

G Day everyone, Just joined yesterday and am pleased to say that I am impressed with the Stamp Community web site. Thought I would share a nice example of a penny black stamp which was mailed from a daughter to her mother in Scotland in June 1840. Just 6 weeks after the introduction of the penny black, this is a nice example of one of the earliest letters sent with the new and now universal postal service which uses postage stamps. Hope you like it? Cheers, Revdoc. David from Sydney Australia.

Welcome David!

Thanks for sharing.

Great piece of family history. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Hi Revdoc, Welcome to this community! I have only been here since the first of November myself, have found everyone here to be very helpful and welcoming, I hope you find the same thing. I wanted to thank you for showing your penny black, I had never seen an actual penny black before, it is very, very nice. OK, enjoy the site and see you in the forums. Julie
