Ordinary Postage Stamps - Issue of 1922

This series of postage stamps was issued to replace the regular issue of stamps, known as the "Series of 1912."

There are 21 denominations in this series, each having a different subject as the central design and with larger numerals denoting the denominations.

The designs are most artistic and were selected with the view of giving historical and educational interest to the stamps.

Three different border designs were used for this series of stamps, which are the same size, 75/100 by 87/100 inch, as the 1912 issue.

The border design for the first 13 denominations (1-cent to 14-cent) is identical. A different border design was used for the 15-cent denomination and still another border design for the remaining seven denominations (20-cent, 25-cent, 30-cent, 50-cent, $1, $2, and $5).
