  • Patent number: 5139136
    Abstract: A stamp pouch comprises a flexible Kraft paper back sheet in facing contact with a flexible transparent top sheet and at least one postage stamp interposed therebetween. The facing surfaces of the back sheet and top sheet are coated with a cohesive. The top and back sheets are longer than the postage stamp, so they cohere to each other in areas above and below the stamp top and bottom edges. The top and back sheets have respective widths approximately equal to the width of the postage stamp, so the top and back sheets cohere through the perforations at the postage stamp side edges. A slit in the back sheet enables a person to easily grasp and tear it to remove the postage stamp. In alternate embodiment, a zone along associated ends of the top and back sheets are uncoated with cohesive. A person can grasp the uncoated and uncohered sheet ends to peel them apart and remove the postage stamp. The stamp pouch may be hung on an attractive display caddy for viewing by purchasers.
