The first stamp in the world was an English stamp. It was made in 1840. Before that, people paid money to the postman for every letter that they received and the postman didn’t give the letters to anybody who didn’t pay him.
An English teacher, whose name was Rowland Hill, thought much about this. One day, he said that the people who wrote the letter should pay for them, and not the people who got the letters. He then spoke about it to the people in the government. Soon the post offices began to sell little pieces of paper with a
stamp on them.
