This thread is for links to any postal agency providing
any information regarding the printers,print method,
engravers, designers, colours used, gum and paper type
etc.


Whether for past or current issues, online or available
via snail mail.

The best in my opinion is from the USPS.
Their Postal Bulletins provide not only all of the above
but even the manufacturer of the particular printing press
used.


Here is a list back to 2001

Canada Post gives out some information in their
Details magazine issued quarterly.
CP has gone through various formats over
the last 50 years.

The latest downsized version is not anywhere near as
readable as the previous Details but still provides much
of the information as before which isn't that much.

Australia Post now have the Stamp Bulletin
http://shop.auspost.com.au/stamp-co...tin-archives

which was previously called Philatelic Bulletin

The Philatelic Bulletins from the 1970s had just about the best
information about stamps I had ever seen.

I will show some of the pages after I scan them.
