A postage stamp is a small piece of printed paper affixed to mail as proof of pre-paid delivery. The first adhesive postage stamp, the Penny Black, was issued in the United Kingdom in May 1840 and featured a profile of Queen Victoria.
Early stamps were printed in sheets and had to be cut apart with scissors. In 1854, perforation — rows of holes punched between stamps — was introduced, letting users tear stamps apart cleanly. This perforated edge became the visual signature of the postage stamp: a series of evenly spaced dots running around all four sides.
