How much is first class postage from US to Poland?
There are many factors involved to determine cost. Stamps of this era were produced in large quantities. If the stamps are on envelope, they could be worth more than a mint or unused stamp. Consult a catalog to identify the stamp and to determine a value. You can find them at your library.
To buy rationed goods, you had to have both - the usual cash to pay for the purchase, and the ration stamp entitling you to make the purchase. Purchasing rationed goods without a stamp amounted to a crime, for both buyer and seller, and was a "black market" transaction. If you mean postage stamps, no, you still needed postage stamps. Men overseas in the US military were exempt from postage, and could write "free" where the stamp would ordinarily go on an envelope. People writing letters from the US to men in the service overseas were encouraged to use "V Mail". You had to buy special stationary, a sort of a form, with the place for the address in the middle of the top of the page. You put this in an envelope and mailed it, and the Post Office opened your V Mail, microfilmed your letter and then destroyed the original, then sent the microfilm overseas, where special military units printed a copy of the letter big enough to read and sent that on to the recipient. This saved scarce and valuable space on ships heading to Europe, which then did not have to be used for sacks of mail.
Over three gallons of petrol. Eighty postage stamps for an inland letter. Twelve pints of Bitter.
Although there are rare stamps, in general WWII food ration stamps in a book of stamps (with some missing) are worth $2 to $5. An absolutely new book of stamps (unsigned) might be worth $10 or more. A book of stamps signed by someone famous would, of course, be worth even more. Loose stamps (not in a book) are generally worthless - a few pennies, if that.
That depends what denomination of stamps you place on the envelope.
It depends on which country you are in and how big your envelope is. The bigger the envelope the more stamps you have to put on. ( that's in the UK)
You can use forever stamps on the letter. It is worth 44 cents toward the cost. You must put additional postage on the envelope.
No stamps stuck on the envelope well have experienced it before. The postal authorities will charge to the recipient.
If you envelope weighs less than one ounce, it will take one forever stamp or one current first class stamp. If the letter and envelope weigh more than one ounce, the number of stamps will depend on the weight and the denomination of the stamps.
The amount of stamps needed for an envelope is determined by weight. Weigh your a4 envelope and you will know how much postage is needed.
I put .96 cents on a wedding invitation i sent to France. But a wedding envelope is bigger than a regular letter envelope.
how many stamps for a 3.4oz envelope
For a standard size envelope it is 44 cents.
You can use forever stamps on an international letter. It is worth 44 cents toward the cost. You must put additional postage on the envelope.
At that weight, it would be classified as a large envelope, and postage would be $2.20 as of 2016.
The answer will depend on what country you are in, where (in the world) the letter is going and the value of each stamp!
