Thornton W. Burgess Was An American Author And Conservationist Born January 14, 1874, And Died June 5, 1965, Best Known For His Beloved Children’s Animal Stories Set In The Green Forest And The Smiling Pool, Featuring Characters Like Peter Rabbit, Jerry Muskrat, And Grandfather Frog, With Stories Designed To Entertain While Teaching Lessons About Nature, Behavior, And Conservation.

Burgess Quaddies™ Was A Trade Name Or Brand Used In Early 20th Century Marketing For Burgess’s Children’s Books, Especially The Bedtime Story-Books Series, And The Word Quaddies Likely Referred To The Small Square Or Card-Like Format Of The Promotional Items Such As Poster Stamps Or Collectible Inserts Used To Advertise And Sell The Books Through Bookstores, Rather Than Being A Character Or Story Element Itself.

Thanks So Much For Stopping By! Most Of The Poster Stamps And Cinderellas I Offer Are Truly Old Historic Treasures! Many Are Close To 100 Years Old Or More. Because Of Their Age, You Might Notice A Few Minor Imperfections Here And There. They're Full Of History And Character, But They Most Definitely Aren't Post Office Fresh. That's Especially True For Cinderella And Poster Stamps, So Please Take A Good Look At The Scans Because They're An Important Part Of The Description. Also, Please Note That The Backs Of Poster Stamps Are Typically Considered Much Less Important Than The Fronts, And Descriptions Can Be A Bit Subjective. If The Condition Of The Back Is Important To You, Just Reach Out. I Am Happy To Provide More Details Or Additional Scans.

I Do My Best To Describe Everything Honestly And Accurately, And To The Best Of My Ability, I Guarantee That All Items Are Genuine (Unless Otherwise Noted). If A Reprint, Reproduction Or Forgery Is Listed, It Is Clearly Noted In The Stamp Description. I'm Not A Philatelic Expert, Just A Passionate Collector And Seller Who Cares About Getting It Right. Occasionally A Mistake Might Slip Through, But If An Item Turns Out To Be Fundamentally Not As Described, I'll Make It Right With A Refund.

Please Feel Free To Reach Out With Any Questions Or If You'd Like To See More Scans Or Photos. I'm Always Happy To Help Before You Buy.

Your Satisfaction Is My Top Priority. The Rest Is Just A Bonus.

Thanks Again, And Happy Hunting!
