Very interesting information friend.

I'm very surprised that there aren't more interested militaria collectors having even a slight interest in this area. Either the T.R. period or the U.S. wartime period is a colorful collecting period. Stamps were an intricate part of moral boosting both to men and women in the service and on the home fronts. Not to forget that the wartime issues make a nice part of one's militaria display or simply by themselves.

Here are just a few examples including a related item (stamp machine)

Some of the postal stamps produced by Polish graphic artists who were PoWs in Woldenberg Oflag IIC PoW camp are also highly sought after by collectors....true artworks in miniature!

Feld/Field Post material is an intricate part of wartime stamp collecting as well.

A great philately auction site I have purchased from in the past is:

Although the item descrptions are in Polish the section headings can be read in English. The archived results retain the image files so make a comprehensive visual reference.
