30 trading stamps
10 each from 3 different companies
----------------------

Their small size and fabulous details make old trading stamps perfect to use in art pieces, decoupage, artist trading cards, collages and altered art.

These are small enough to be transformed into earrings, pendants and magnets, too. Check out what these talented Etsy sellers did with trading stamps:

I believe the stamps I'm selling are from the late 1950's and early 1960's. S&H stamps were probably the most well known, often going by the term 'green stamps'.

Please Note: Canadian and American nickels are the same size.

TRIVIA:
Sperry and Hutchinson (S&H) started operations in 1896 and flourished from the 1930s through the 1960s. In 1964 the S&H Green Stamp catalog became the largest single publication distributed in the United States.

Before you go, why not add RubyDog's Art House to your list of 'Favourites? That way you can find us, again. After all, it's so easy to get lost on Etsy, isn't it?

PLEASE BE AWARE:
Etsy charges sellers when a customer finds their shop via another site or search engine (Google, Bing, Instagram, Pinterest, etc.). We are forced to pay them 12-15% of the total order (including taxes and shipping!) on top of all the other fees. Plus, any orders you enter over the next 30 days also garner this charge. It would be greatly appreciated if, when you come across an ad or listing via any site other than Etsy itself, you do not click on it. Instead, if you would go to Etsy.com and search for the item or simply cut-and-paste the title into the Etsy.com search bar and find the item that way, you would be doing all the small businesses on Etsy a great favour. Thank you so much.
