Welcome to my Web Page.
Please bookmark this page if you intend to return to the site. By visiting this website, you
are about to embark on a journey through Confederate Philately.
All the various sections are listed on the toolbar at the left.
Clicking each button on the toolbar in turn will open that section in
this frame with the toolbar always remaining at the left for easy
navigation. Use the Site
Map for an outline view of the complete
website. For
the optimum visual effect, it would be best if your screen was
maximized. The
listings and the images
of the stamps and
covers are best viewed with Internet Explorer 11. Edge, Firefox, Chrome and other browsers will
not show
the table
border
frame colors.
For example, this table has a two color blue
and red border in Internet Explorer 11 but only shows as two
shades
of gray in the other browsers. If you wish to print out any of the
pages or frames, printing can be easily done with Internet Explorer 11.
Support for Internet Explorer 11 is ending. Instead of Internet
Explorer 11 for those who no longer use it, Edge or Chrome is
recommended.
Please do not forget to sign the GUESTBOOK
when you have finished browsing the site. I certainly
hope that you will enjoy your tour of Confederate Philately.
If no tool bar appears in a frame at the left, click HERE.
History needs to be
studied and
understood so that the people of today can learn from history and learn
from the people who lived the history so that the mistakes of history
are not repeated. This
Confederate philatelic website, which is totally non-political and
non-sectarian and exisits only for the study of the Civil War period
stamps and postal systems of a major event in
American history,
has been continuously operational since
February 1997. Over the years, this website has grown into a
major source of Confederate Civil War Stamps,
Postal History (Covers), and Currency for both the beginner and the
advanced CSA Philatelic Collector.

This website was initially designed at a time when people did not use
phones to surf the Internet. This website was designed for desktop and
laptop computers with a larger screen. The website will also work well
on a tablet with a larger screen. The website will work with all
browsers and will work on your phone. It just may be a bit difficult to
view and navigate on a phone because of the smaller screen, but it can
be done with a little practice. To make the website fully mobile
compatible would mean redesigning the website from the ground up and
could potentially cost thousands of dollars to do so. I am not prepared
to do that, so the website will for the immediate future remain as it
is. Currently, about 10% of visits are made using a phone (either an
iPhone or an Android).
