Philatelic Word Of The Day
| Gum Crease | A gum crease is a naturally occurring crease or creases found on flat plate stamps most often caused by movement and subsequent cracking of the gum in the drying process. Gum creases are often seen on early airmail stamps, including the Zeppelins. Stamps of these issues without gum creases bring a premium. |
