On this day in 1963 1st class postage was raised from 4 cents to 5 cents! Can you imagine that!?
I remember using a 15 cent stamp to mail a postcard and paying .35 cents for an ice cream cone at Thrify's in CA.Umm, yes I can.
I remember when they were a penny less than 4 cents.
Of course, you are noting a 25% increase, from one day to the next. These days, the rates increase just about yearly but at lower percentages.
