Poster Stamps are the ultimate topical collectible and bring as much historical interest to stamp and ephemera collecting as any specialty. First issued in Europe in the late 1800s to promote or commemorate events, poster stamps are growing in popularity in the 21st century as new catalogues are being issued for many different topics and for collectors with chronological / geographic interests.
