They’re electronic now but not as widely known. Greenpoints
My dad was getting them from truck stops when I was a kid and it was my job to stick them into the books. Just thinking about it, I can taste the glue.

@Blueroses GA. I didn’t think they still existed.

On December 7, 2006, it was announced that S&H Solutions was purchased by San Francisco based Pay By Touch. The purchase price was in excess of $100 million in cash and stock. Pay by Touch has since become bankrupt.

My aunties had those…..I loved to put the stamps in the books. Then they got very fat and green (the books, not my aunties…lol!)
