1-27-16 Working Class Stamps in 2:00
http://laborhistoryin2.podbean.com/e/january-27-2016-working-class-stamps/
January 27, 2016
On this day in Labor History the year was 1950. The cost of a first-class stamp was three cents.
And starting on this day, one of the options for first class postage bore the image of US labor leader Samuel Gompers.
The British-born Gompers was a founder and long-time head of the American Federation of Labor.
