Chiming in:


The Fox Stamp for $1 was allegedly a magic token to sign and this was allegedly an international treaty according to the UN's Global Postal Code. I did a couple quick searches and found nothing about a Private Postmaster General. Without substantive law I am not compelled to read patriot myth into the task.

From substantive law however I feel that the postage stamp is lawful money, in that any postal clerk can "redeem" it by cancellation with a rounddate. This is equivalently defacing money by authority and it means that the stamp has been "spent". Above, Michael Joseph is exercising the authority and the postal union and Secret Service have long defaulted on the opportunity to call him on defacing money. This establishes the position of Settlor with MJ as published at the Register of Deeds.
