Despite our large, existing collection, the National Postal Museum has an extensive collection plan that includes:
- A comprehensive specialized collection of 19th Century carrier and local stamps
- A comprehensive specialized collection of Confederate stamps (1861-1865) and Confederate Postmaster Provisional stamps
- Colonial postal road maps, tax stamps and handstamps
- Female letter carrier uniforms
- Pony Express saddle and Bible
- Sea Post service mailbags (1845-1915) and letterboxes (1900-1915)
If you have any of the above and would like to contribute them to the National Postal Museum, please see Donating.
