A new project has been undertaken by CWPS members Frank Crown, James Montich and Jerry Palazolo. The intent of this project is to update and list “all known markings” on Mississippi stampless covers from the Confederate era.
This project in being built upon a series of previous efforts with origins in 1945 when August Dietz began chronicling handstamped paid markings from the various Confederate States in his latest edition of a Confederate catalog. These predecessor projects finally culminated in 2012 with the publishing of the Confederate States of America Catalog and Handbook of Stamps and Postal History.
The initial results of this new project can be found from the main menu under “Resources / Confederate Census / Stampless Covers / Mississippi Stampless Covers from Major Holdings” or just click here.
