It is a piece of gummed paper. The tend to be light green or light brown. They are used to place stamps on album pages, by folding them into a V and putting one part on the stamp and the other on the page. They are designed to be able to be pulled off the stamp without damaging it.

Can you cut stamps out and tape then to your stamp collection book?

You could do that. However, the tape is likely to ruin the stamp. Most collectors use an item called a hinge, a small piece of thin paper with glue on it. Hinges can be peeled off the stamp without damaging it. And the stamp is usually 'soaked' off the paper using cool water.


What does the stamp OT mean?

Stamps come in various forms mint (not used postally or any other way) mounted mint (when a person mounts the stamp on a hinge to store as part of a collection) or used through the post office. When a person generally a collector buys a stamp from a philatelic bureau he may ask for the stamp to be CTO (cancelled to order). So the post office will actually cancel the stamp with a post office cancel. This is done for two reasons a collector will collect stamps in this manner or they will collect the specific post office cancel. When the stamp is cancelled it will not be able to be used postally. Hope this helps
