CPS member Gilad Aharoni has complied a very comprehensive website of modern political maps on stamps. The site enables browsing via lists of countries or issuing entities. A keyword search function is also included. The search results are presented in a very clean layout style depicting an album page. Catalog numbers exist for many of the images. Additionally, links to eBay and Delcampe are present for more exhaustive searches. Gilad comments, “… this database represents my personal interests – modern political maps – so there are very few globes, antique maps, world and continent outlines etc. … still, there are over 10,000 items [comprised of] postage stamps, cinderellas, FDCs, cancels with maps, and more. The image on the left shows an example of output from one of the pages. “ [ we expect this site will become a very useful research tool for Cartophilatelists! thank you Gilad for your tireless efforts over the years developing this site! – web admin ]

Checklist Editor David Wolfersberger has finalized the second 2020 update of the MoS Checklist (March 2020 to May 2020). These new updates, along with previous updates, are available as Microsoft Excel files to download from “Checklist Updates” section on our MoS Checklist page. Europa stamps are special stamps issued by European postal administrations/enterprises and bear the official EUROPA logo, a registered trademark under the aegis of PostEurop in which Europe is the central theme. The theme for the 2020 Europa issues is “Ancient Postal Routes” and from the issues released thus far, will prove to be very exciting for cartophilatelists. From 9 May till 9 September 2020, PostEurop is sponsoring a contest where visitors can vote for the most beautiful 2020 EUROPA stamps entries for the 2020 theme. While the PostEurop site is the official issue listing, Jurgen Haepers’ long running and well known “europa, cept, norden & sepac stamps information blog” is the go-to destination for large issue images and up-to-date information. Here you will also find a continuously revised post, Europa 2020 “Ancient postal routes” showcasing the this year’s new issues. This year’s issues are shaping up to have some wonderful and diverse cartophilatelic designs. A few samples are shown below. We will continue to monitor the forth-coming new issues.
