Year 1852 Calendar with US Scott 10 & 11 Stamps
One of our members recently completed this calendar of stamps. It took about 15 years of searching thousands of stamps to complete. It is composed of the United States 1851, 3-cent, imperforate stamp (Scott catalog numbers 10 and 11). This calendar is complete and contains all 366 dates of the year, including the elusive February 29 date. During the period that this stamp was issued, February 29 only happened in 1852 and 1856. In 1857 the United States issued the first perforated stamps and the 3-cent stamp was replaced with Scott catalog number 26.
