14. If I'm correct - the Post Office only sells you these stamps if you ask for it

It's like license plates - if you don't ask you'll get the standard issue plate that looks like 95% of the other standard issue license plate.

If you want speciality stamps like the Harvey Milk one then you need to ask for them.

I'd like to do a test - I'd send a check for $10 to AFA and see if they would still open the envelope to take the money or would they reject it because of a Harvey Milk stamp I put on it. Then I realized that AFA is not worth the $10.50 it would cost to try the test.
