| Sample Output from Gilad’s Maps on Stamps Website |
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 ]
