The following galleries contains almost 7.500 images of various philatelic items related to Paleontology and Paleoanthropology: postage stamps, First Day Covers (FDC), postal stationeries, postmarks and meter-frankings, commercially used covers and postcards.

The galleries feature collections of images of philatelic materials grouped by type, corresponding to the topics of the website.
The “Stamps” galleries include images of postage stamps only, the “FDC” galleries display First Day Covers, and so on.
To view all philatelic items from the same issue together, please visit the index page of the “Description” articles. Over 300 articles are currently available, with new ones added regularly.

The galleries are divided into four categories:

1. Postage Stamps
2. First Day Covers (FDC)
3. Postmarks and Meter-frankings
4. Postal Stationeries - pre-stamped envelopes and postcards

Each category includes unused (on the left) and used examples (on the right) of philatelic materials from primary and related topics.

Philatelic materials of primary topics include items depicting dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals, prehistoric plants, fossils, paleontologists and paleoanthropologists.

Philatelic materials of related topics include items depicting fossil sites, Natural History Museums, contributors to Paleontology or Paleoanthropology.
