Abstract
Abstract A protective stamp mount has a pair of opposed transparent glass plates which are hinged together by a silicone cement which is received in a recess formed by beveled adjacent edges of the plates. The other three edges of the plates can also be beveled to provide a recess for permanently sealing the stamp between the plates. A spacer and border provides clearance between the plates. In a modified embodiment, a continuous rectangular metal band is sized to receive the plates and provide a metallic periphery for the plates to protect the edges thereof.
