1894 Bureau Issue Un-watermarked
In 1894 the U.S. Bureau of Engraving and Printing, which had been producing currency for the United States for some time, took over the production of postage stamps. Prior to this time all postage had been printed by contractors. The stamp issues of 1894, 1895, and 1898 are often collectively referred to as the First Bureau Issue.
