The printed stamp albums of the early publishers (who often also were stamp dealers) encouraged col- lectors of the period 1870 to 1910 to trim envelopes and wrappers to fit spaces in the albums. After the turn of the century, as stamp catalogs and dealer price lists grew in size, postal stationery was dropped from many stamp catalogs, and most albums ceased pro- viding spaces for cuts of envelopes and wrappers.

  • Postal History Timeline
    Postal History Timeline Early Romans and Persians had message and relay systems. 1775 Continental Congress creates a postal system and names Ben Franklin the Postmaster General. He had also been a postmaster for the crown. Among his achievements as Postmaster for the Crown were establishing new postal routes, establishing mile markers, and speeding up service. IMPORTANCE: In early times, correspondents depended on friends, merchants, and Native Americans to carry messages. In 1639 a tavern in Boston was designated as a mail repository. England had appointed Benjamin Franklin as Joint Postmaster General for the Crown in 1753. Franklin inspected all the post offices, and created new shorter routes. However, in 1774 Franklin was dismissed because his actions were sympathetic to the cause of the colonies. 1832 First time railroads were used by the Postal Service to carry the mail. In 1864, railroad cars were set up to carry mail and equipped so that mail could be sorted on the railroad car. Railroad mail service ended in 1977. IMPORTANCE: Apart from the employees, transportation was the single most important element in mail delivery. 1840 The first adhesive postage stamp is created in England as part of a postal reform movement spearheaded by Roland Hill. Quickly, other countries started using this system of ensuring letters were paid for. Before this system, people would send letters postage due, with codes in the address or as a blank letter. This way the message would be received, but the recipient would not pay for the letter. 1847 The first U.S. postage stamp is issued. 1858 Butterfield Overland Mail provides service between Missouri and California.

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology on Postage Stamps
    Obstetrics and Gynecology on Postage Stamps: A Philatelic Study TURKAN GURSU1 and Alper Eraslan2 1SBU Zeynep Kamil Maternity and Pediatric Research and Training Hospital, Istanbul, TURKEY 2Dunya IVF, Kyrenia, Cyprus May 5, 2020 Abstract Objective:We tried to provide an overview of philatelic materials related to Gynecology and Obstetrics. Design:Sample philatelic materials including stamps, first day covers and stamped postcards, all related to obstetrics and gynecology, from the senior author’s personal archive were grouped according to their titles and evaluated in detail. Setting:We examine how stamp designers use visual imagery to convey information to those who see, collect, and use stamps. Method:Sample philatelic materials, related to obstetrics and gynecology, were grouped according to their titles and evaluated in detail. Main outcome measures:Stamps dedicated to the Obstetrics and Gynecology are usually printed in order to (a)pay tribute to the pioneers of Obstetrics and Gynecology, (b)commemorate important Obstetrics and Gynecology Facilities&Hospitals, (c)announce solid improvements and innovations in the field or (d)memorialize important meetings. Results:The initial use of postage stamps was solely to pay the fare of a postal service. Later on it was discovered that by using stamps it was possible to distribute ideas and news among people and also to inform them about developments, inventions, achievements and historical facts. Collecting Gynecology related philatelic materials is a very specialized branch of medical philately. In general, the subjects of the stamps dedicated to Obstetrics and Gynecology are, pioneers of Obstetrics and Gynecology, important Obstetrics and Gynecology Facilities&Hospitals, solid improvements and innovations in the field and important meetings.

    MODULE - III Service Sector 8 POSTAL AND COURIER Notes SERVICES Are you facing any difficulty while studying this course material? Have you been able to comprehend the lessons you have studied so far? If not, please feel free to write to National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) about your specific problems. The NIOS will definitely find out a solution to your problem. But the question is how will you convey your problems? In the previous lesson, you learnt about various means of communication. By using any of those means you can communicate with us. In that lesson, you also learnt that letters are very common and convenient means of written communication. If you write a letter to us, then how it will reach to us? Who will bring it to us? Well, it is the post office or any other private courier service provider, which will do it. It acts as a middleman between the sender and the receiver. The sender posts the letter at the post office and the post office takes all necessary steps to deliver the letter to the person concerned. In addition to this, the post office also performs some other services. In this lesson we will learn more about various services rendered by the post office. OBJECTIVES After studying this lesson, you will be able to: • explain the meaning and nature of postal services; • state various services provided by post offices and private courier services providers; • describe the importance of postal services; and • recognise the role of private courier services. 8.1 MEANING OF POSTAL SERVICES You must have been to a Post Office.

Smith BLACKS ON STAMP AFRICANA POSTAGE STAMPS WORLDWIDE Exhibition Rowe Arts Side Gallery February 13-17, 2012 CURATOR’S REMARKS About three years ago, Chancellor Philip Dubois introduced me to Dr. Esper Hayes via email. About a fortnight later, Dr. Hayes was in my office. In a meeting that lasted an hour or so, she drew me into her philatetic world. A wonderful friendship began. Since then, we have corresponded scores of times. She has also connected me with her vast network of stamp collectors, especially members of the organization she established for promoting Black-themed stamps all over the world – the Ebony Society of Philatetic Events and Reflec- tions (ESPER). This exhibition is the product of networks of collaborative efforts nurtured over many months. Blacks on Stamp is about preservation of memory and historical reflection. The objectives of the exhibition are to: (1) showcase the relevance of stamps as a form of material culture for the study of the history of the global Black experience; (2) explore the aesthetics and artistry of stamp as a genre of representative art, especially for understanding the Africana achievements globally; and (3) use the personalities and historical issues repre- sented on stamps to highlight some of the defining moments in national and world histories.
