Not sure of a good area to post this but,
I may be able to get some of the posters and/or placards that they put up in the local post office. I haven't seen much about these kinds of items and they are not stamps, but I was just wondering if there is any interest in this sort of thing.
A few years ago I was able to get a placard relating to the comic book charactor stamps that came out then. I think I have a Spiderman placard. Just today I picked up the placard for the Inverted Jenny sheet.

Dave I see these listed all the time.The problem I see with them is how to store/display them.As always collect what you find that appeals to your eye,let NO one tell you what to save.

I just had a folder full of Canadian post office posters and counter material that a member of our club gave me (he tried to unload some more on me last week, but I had to put my foot down!) Tried selling them at a paper show (yes, really, there IS such a thing) but no one was interested. Some of them were lovely but just not my thing. Ended up giving them to the Vincent Greene Foundation in Toronto. They were thrilled, as they don't have a lot of more modern stuff like that. I guess the short answer is, that I'll get to eventually, is if there's a philatelic organization in your area, such as a library or research foundation, like the Greene, offer it there. They may love you for it.
