How much is a stamp?

A stamp is a small paper that is pasted on the mail sent to the post office for delivery by post. Postage stamps were created to solve the problem of how to pay for letter delivery. The stamps were first used in the famous vintage Victorian times in which they were well promoted and used by people. This gave rise to the trend of sending and receiving letters by mail. Even the government also started to use letters to exchange official papers, which was very difficult in the old times to notify people.

In the old times, stamps were given to the general public without any marking available for cutting or tearing. If anyone wanted to cut or tear the stamps, he or she would take scissors to cut the desired number of stamps. Those stamps, torn individually, were very fragile, and it wasn’t easy to make sure that they remained in good condition. Then a tool called the “Rouletting Wheels” was introduced to the post offices, and then it became quite easy for them to tear the stamp easily. It is to be noted that this process was less time-consuming than the usual tearing and cutting process.
