The front page of Linn's issue of Feb. 19, 1962, included an article about the upcoming Canal Zone stamp being issued for the 50th anniversary of Girl Scouts. The stamp (now listed as Scott 156) had a March 12, 1962 issue date.
Founder George W. Linn used his editorial to publish a letter from a New York architect who complained about unnecessary postage stamps being issued.
"This letter is a sad tale for it tells how this gentleman has become disgusted with the current and recent deluge of unnecessary postage stamps, most of which are issued solely because countries of issue see easy money from the world of stamp collectors," Linn said in introducing the letter.
Rumark Co. of New York City advertised mint centerline blocks of United States Scott 753, the 3¢ Byrd Antarctic issue of 1935, for $8.60. Today, a mint centerline block catalogs at $80.
