1934 Green 1 Cent Stamp

I am not a stamp collector but was helping my parents sort through some boxes of old books and came across a newspaper of my grandparents from 1934. The newspaper isnt that exciting but the stamp stuck to it caught my eye. It looks like it has the date 1934 stamped acrossed. No one in my family has ever collected stamps to my knowledge so I'm not sure why this stamp was on there, but I imagine it's been sitting in the box for quite a few years. Is it anything exciting? Or just a boring stamp?

Welcome.
Your stamp was one of the real 'workhorses' of that era and they printed millions of them. Stamp condition is important in stamp collecting and unfortunately your stamp is damaged. But you can learn more about it here http://stampsmarter.com/1847usa/192...ntifier.html
