WWII Combat Insignia Stamps of U.S. Army, Navy, Air Corps
In 1942, Robert Lash Robbins in cooperation with Hearst Publications and the Detroit Times produced a series of 150 colorful poster stamps depicting the insignia of most of the then-active combat units of the U.S. Army, Navy, and Air Corps. The stamps are both copyrighted and registered with the US Patent Office and were produced in a limited issue of just 350,000.
Each poster stamp measures 1.5" x 2" and they are printed in bright colors with each unit insignia accurately reproduced. The stamps are mounted in three 20-page albums with 3 or 4 stamps on each page. The albums have a comprehensive description of each unit and each stamp. The cover page of the Vol 1 album is detatched, however, included is a brand new blank Vol 1. The album covers and a sample page are show below.
