Description: ANTIQUE CDV 1865 2C FULLY UNPERFORATED WASHINGTON CIVIL WAR TAX STAMP YOUNG LADY Info: 1862-71 Proprietary StampThe Revenue Act of 1862 established new taxes on many everyday items and called for specific stamps for each taxable item. Butler and Carpenter of Philadelphia was awarded the printing contract scarely two months before the law was to go into effect.As war raged and resources stretched thin, the firm was allowed to ship the stamps whether or not the perforating process was complete. Therefore the First Issue Revenue stamps may be found perforated horizontally and vertically, imperforate, or partially perforated. “Part perforated” stamps were created unintentionally. Because revenue was needed quickly to finance the war, the stamps were pulled from production before they were completed. As a result, they feature perforations in one direction only and resemble coil stamps.Each First Issue Revenue stamp features the same portrait of George Washington, which is based on a work by Gilbert Stuart. However, the various taxable categories and denominations differ in the design of the lathwork frame that surrounds the Washington portrait. The tax was later repealed on some articles.
