Imagine, the stamp created by an English teacher, Sir Rowland Hill, and began to be used in 1846 is the most efficient and effective proof of payment for mailing by mail. A stamp is also called a piece of sticky paper as proof of payment for postal services, just like sending a letter. The back of the postage generally contains the adhesive, while on the front contains a certain price intended to be attached to the postal items.

The first stamp of Sir Rowland Hill's idea was published in England in 1840, and was the first official stamp in the world. Prior to that year there were already stamps but unofficial, unusable by the general public, but only by certain nobles. The first official stamp has the following characteristics:
Load the image of the Queen Victoria's head. Printed in black. Load the postage word on top. Load one penny words at the bottom.
Given the color of black ink and one penny writing that shows the nominal price, the stamp is then known by the public with the nickname The Penny Black.
The story of the idea of ​​publishing stamps by Sir Rowland Hill was quite interesting. One time he saw an introduction handed a letter to a girl. After a moment of careful examination of the letter, the girl immediately returned the letter to the postman and refused to pay the mailing fee on the grounds that she had no money.
Sir Rowland Hill approached the girl and asked what it was because he refused to accept the letter. The girl's answer was surprising. The letter that turned out to come from his lover that contains some signs / codes that are only known by both of them. Without having to open the letter even the girl already knows what exactly the intent / contents of the letter. So, why should he bother to pay the postage. This makes Sir Rowland upset, because if it happens often, how bad the postal service and also how the fate of employees who work in it. In addition to the case, what made Sir Rowland also think of stamps was when Sir Rowland pursued the field of taxation and administrative science, as well as observing the socio-economic developments in England at the time.
In 1830, when the British developed into an industrialized country, transportation made considerable progress. The railroad starts to stretch from West to East and from North to South. At that time, Rowland Hill thought about how to get money for the treasury from the taxes on mail delivery. Even the thought of a tax letters delivery. Even Rowland Hill's mind was also harassed by granting the right of members of the House of Commons and the House of Lords in parliament to be able to send letters free of charge without any limits. In addition, the system of payment of mailing costs by the recipients also harmed many postal services. It was seen by Rowland Hill as a waste and very harmful to the royal treasury.
