Cigar Tax Stamps, 1800s

I hate taxes, but I love these tax stamps! It almost makes it a little less annoying having everything taxed when it comes with some beautiful little piece of design. Yes, I’m a crazy designer, I know. Maybe for my new company I’ll design my own tax stamps- “You’re being taxed 7.5%!” that way it softens the blow with a beautifully engraved design.
