The first federal wine stamps appeared in 1914, being the result of the Emergency Revenue Act of October 22, 1914. Among other things, the new tax law increased the federal excise tax on wine, which was to be collected through the use of new revenue stamps. All of the wine revenue stamps are somewhat similar in appearance. The stamps were printed on watermarked paper, in shades of green, most were rouletted starting in 1916.
