Records relating to the design, production and marketing of philatelic products [multiple media]

Plate proofs, final accepted stamp designs and other records related to the production of stamps are described within sub-series titled by year of production. Sub-sub-series have been created for each stamp issue. If a stamp was re-issued at a later date, please consult the year in which it was re-issued and not the year in which it was originally issued.

Records related to the research and design of philatelc issues are located in the Research and design sub-series (Mikan 4743479). This sub-series consists of design submissions not used for stamps, in addition to design submissions for NANIs (stamp designs that were never accepted nor never issued by Canada Post).

Further accruals are expected.

Other production records, particularly those older than 1990, can be found in the National Postal Museum Series (Mikan 133423) under the Philatelic Collection sub-series (Mikan 183505).

Stamps and other philatelic products can be found under the National Philatelic Centre (MIKAN 183472).
