NOTES:  Mint entires are complete, pre-stamped envelopes that bear no indication of postal use.  This price list also includes unused and preprinted entires.  The majority of classic era official envelopes and wrappers are only available in preprinted form.  UPSS numbers are the assigned catalog number followed by the watermark number (0 means no watermark, 00 means recycled paper), and then by the working die type (if any).   Pencil notations, especially on earlier issues, was a common practice and is not considered to affect the value but, for the benefit of the more particular collector, we have noted the presence of the pencil notations by poB (on the Back), poF (on the Front), or poF/B (on both the Front and the Back).  Items rated as very fine (vf) should be substantially as sold by the Post Office, fine-to-very fine (f/vf) may show minor evidence of handling.
