Stamp Collection

Prized not only for their artistry, stamps open windows to the wider world. They tell the history of a place and its people and have delighted collectors since they first came into use in the 1840s. The NGE’s Stamp Collection includes stamps issued by the United States Postal Service over the last century to honor the political figures, artists, and culture of Georgia.
