The commemorative stamp is created mainly to honour a special occasion, person or place. They are printed in very small quantities, sometimes only once, therefore ensuring their uniqueness and standard as an excellent collectors item. Post services worldwide have several issues every year of various commemoratives and are used alongside standard issues. Collectors everywhere are seeking to find unique, and sought after commemoratives.
Some Nice Commemorative Stamps include:
- Ronald Reagan & Mickey Mouse First Day Covers
- Greta Garbo Joint US/Sweden
- First Day
- John Wayne First Day Covers
- New York Subway Commemorative Panel
- King George V and King George VI
- 1948 Olympics (4v)
- 1935 Jubilee (4v)
- 948 Liberation (2v)
- Columbian Exposition Issue-1893
- Trans-Mississippi Exposition Issue -1898
- Pan-American Exposition Issue – 1901
Other possibilities to increase you collection with fantastic and desirable stamps is to obtain collections from a certain period in time such as, The St. Vincent Postage Stamp Collection 1970 – 1981
You can also purchase complete commemorative stamps albums, where all the hard work is done for you, although maybe this takes the part of the fun away!
Commemorative stamps date as far back as the 18th century with examples such as the 1860 17 cent stamp by New Brunswick, showing the Prince of Wales in hope of his visit. 1866 saw the 15 cent stamp in the United States depicting Abraham Lincoln. This stamp was strangely not officially declared as a memorial to him.
In the U.K the Jubilee was issued in 1887 commemorating the 50 year reign of Queen Victoria, and were projected as regular stamps.
Commemorative stamps may also be issued as a mint stamp, where it will not have been used and as a result, not cancelled. In most cases, this increases the value.
There are so many varieties of stamps to collect and including some great commemoratives in your collection adds colour and diversity.
It can be very difficult to find good quality and value for money commemorative stamps. For great advice and sources, continue to Commemorative Stamps
