Here are some fairly rare ribbons from the Portsmouth Ohio "Kum Korn Karnival", which only lasted a couple of years in the early 1900's for probably obvious reasons. The intent was pure, but the naming of it was unfortunate to say the least.

I found these at a gun show for cheap and still have them...why, I'm not sure.

To lower production costs and increase output, the U.S. Postal Service experimented with this "midget" stamp. The smaller image area, which was about 1/3 smaller than usual, provided for 150 stamps per pane instead of the usual 100. This unique issue pictures the 1877 Indian Head Penny, a prized collector coin.
