Issued to meet public demand under new postage rates effective July 6, 1932, the 6-cent stamps were distributed in coils of 500 and 1,000.
To meet the public demand under the new postage rates, effective July 6, 1932, the Department authorized the issuance of 6-cent stamps in coils of 500 and 1,000 each.
The stamps in the coils are of the same design as the 6-cent stamp of the regular 1922–23 series, containing the likeness of Garfield and printed in orange color.
The new 6-cent coil was first placed on sale on August 18, 1932, at Los Angeles, Calif., in connection with the National Philatelic Exposition and American Philatelic Society Convention, held August 15 to 20, 1932.
