Yes, it is normal. Those are precancels ( with the exception of the third one ), stamps that can be used by mass mailers and do not have to be cancelled when mailed.

Bailey, it is a ( probably ) very common stamp. One of the places that can help you would be www.stampsmarter.com , a very good website to learn anything about US stamps
