Scott #JQ1 #JQ2 #JQ3 #JQ4 #JQ5 – 1913 Parcel Post Postage Due Stamps – Curated Mint Set

This curated mounted page features the complete 1913 Parcel Post Postage Due series — Scott JQ1 through JQ5. Introduced alongside the new Parcel Post system, these Back-of-Book stamps were used to indicate underpaid or unpaid fees on parcel mail and remain an important component of early U.S. postal operations. Their engraved green designs and bold value tablets make them a distinctive and highly recognizable issue for specialists.

This set includes mint examples, selected for color and overall appearance. The full range of denominations — 1¢, 2¢, 5¢, 10¢, and 25¢ — is neatly mounted on a clean album page, creating a cohesive display for collectors working on Parcel Post material, JQ-series completion, or early 20th-century U.S. postal history.

A protective 3-hole archival sleeve is included to ensure safe handling and long-term preservation.
