CAMPBELL SOUP LABELS AND POSTAGE STAMPS –
Thank you for your continuing support of two ACW projects:
Postage stamps and Campbell’s soup labels. The requirements for stamps have been changed: They no longer have to have 1/4” margin of envelope around them; simply tear most
of the envelope away, being careful not to tear the stamp. The soup labels have to be complete and in one piece; that is, with no
staples or Scotch tape.
