Staffa is an island of the Inner Hebrides in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. According to the PTS Standing Committee reports made in the late 1960's which are fully documented, "Tourists visiting the island can post mail using private local issues in addition to normal postage stamps". The local stamp fees paid for the service of the boatman taking them to the mainland in Oban and having British stamps applied before sending on through the postal system. Numerous covers exist showing proper usage of the labels as per the rules set forth for British local stamp usage. The recommended description by the committee was to call them "tourist souvenir labels". Known covers proving usage exist dating to 1980. Status could change for later usage. Staffa labels were all produced for or by Clive Feigenbaum. Abusive production is proven and later issues are considered bogus as the mailbox used on Staffa for this service was removed sometime in the 1980's. No covers dating after 1980 seem to exist, therefore Staffa labels made after that year, of which the majority date after 1980, are considered to be bogus labels created and produced by Feigenbaum for personal profits from collectors. Bogus catalogs exist claiming all of them to be British Local stamps. Some of these labels in the name of Staffa were used in a tax shelter scheme in the early 1980's of which the defendants were convicted.

Full Pane Rutherford B. Hayes it reflects the thematic directions:

Famous People refers to the fame and public attention accorded by the mass media to individuals or groups or, occasionally, animals, but is usually applied to the persons or groups of people (celebrity couples, families, etc.) themselves who receive such a status of fame and attention. Celebrity status is often associated with wealth (commonly referred to as fame and fortune), while fame often provides opportunities to make money.

A head of state (or chief of state) is the public persona that officially represents the national unity and legitimacy of a sovereign state. In some countries, the head of state is a ceremonial figurehead with limited or no executive power, while in others, the head of state is also the head of government. In countries with parliamentary governments, the head of state is typically a ceremonial figurehead that does not actually guide day-to-day government activities and may not be empowered to exercise any kind of secular political authority (e.g., Queen Elizabeth II as Head of the Commonwealth). In countries where the head of state is also the head of government, the president serves as both a public figurehead and the actual highest ranking political leader who oversees the executive branch (e.g., the President of the United States).
