Imprinted stamp
In philately an imprinted stamp is a stamp printed onto a piece of postal stationery such as a stamped envelope, postal card, letter sheet, letter card, aerogram or wrapper.〔Carlton, R. Scott. ''The International Encyclopedic Dictionary of Philately''. Iola WI: Krause Publications, 1997, p.117. ISBN 0-87341-448-9.〕 The printing may be flat upon the surface of the paper, or embossed with a raised relief.〔Van Gelder, Peter J.; ''The Collectors' Guide to Postal Stationery'', A Squirrel Publication, Shrewsbury, UK (1997) ISBN 0-947604-07-3〕 An imprinted stamp is also known as unadhesive stamp 〔Ewen, Herbert L'Estrange. ''Priced Catalogue of the Unadhesive Postage Stamps of the United Kingdom (1840-1905)''. London: Ewen's Colonial Stamp Market, 1905.〕 or indicium.〔
The cost of the item of stationery includes the manufacture of the item and the charge for postal service. The design of imprinted stamps often bears a close resemblance to normal adhesive stamps of the same country and era. It may be a definitive or commemorative stamp.
== Collecting ==
In the early days of philately it was common to cut the imprinted stamp from the rest of the item and retain only the stamp. This is known as a cut square. In the U.K. this is known as ''cut-out''.〔 If the imprinted stamp is then trimmed around the edges it is known as cut to shape. It is a ''full corner'' if it has the complete corner of the envelope with side and back flaps attached.〔''Thorp-Bartels Catalogue of United States Stamped Envelopes'', Century Edition, 1954.〕 Today collectors much prefer to keep postal stationery items intact because cutting destroys the postal history, the knife of the stamped envelope, the postmark and any receiving marks.〔
