Stationery

Postal stationery includes pre-printed postal items issued by postal administrations with an imprinted stamp or indicia. These items may include postcards, envelopes, aerograms, letter cards and other official postal stationery products. Postal stationery collecting focuses on design varieties, printing differences, postal usage and historical context. These items provide insight into postal communication practices and are widely collected within the field of postal history and philately.
