Publication History

Publication History of the Civil War Philatelist

From the organization of the Confederate Stamp Alliance in 1935, until the name was changed to the Civil War Philatelic Society in 2020, there were three official publications:

  • February 1956 first issue of the Confederate Stamp Album
  • January 1960 name changed to Confederate Philatelist

In 2021 the name of the official publication was changed to the Civil War Philatelist.

*Notes

    • The first twenty-two issues did not have whole numbers
    • Whole Number 12 was printed as Vol. 11, No. 1 and the year was shown as 1956

**Errata

  • The article “Civil War Military Prisons in Richmond” in the May 1959 issue of the Confederate Stamp Album (Album) was not credited to an author. The author was Earl Antrim.
  • Two of the illustrations on page 34 in the May 1959 issue of the Album were mislabeled. The top illustration is of Castle Lightning Prison in Richmond. The bottom illustration is of Ligon’s Tobacco Warehouse – first prison in the Confederacy.   Note “Ligon’s” is the correct spelling.
  • The illustration on page 79 in the November 1959 issue of the Album should appear on page 82, while the illustration on page 82 should appear on page 79.
  • Corrections to the above were later supplied on gummed paper so members could correct their copies of the Album
