The attached image shows a stamp issued in sheets to shippers and potential shippers during the 1870s.  If anybody can figure out the significance of the two birds atop the boxcar, with the word "TIME" above them, I'd love to hear from you.  My only guess is "time flies" and that doesn't seem to relate to the message, "
