Penny Black
An Investment Company
The Penny Black was the world’s first prepaid adhesive stamp
that standardized the British postal system in 1840. It introduced the concept of
dependable delivery schedules and standardized postage rates by charging the sender
instead of the receiver. Written communication subsequently became widely utilized
as an affordable method of global communication. The Penny Black represents a “game
changing” idea that improved the way civilization shared ideas. We seek to
embody the same philosophy in our investments.
