First-day Covers/Cards of the 1959
U.S. Petroleum Centennial Stamp
(Scott 1134)
This tabular, illustrated listing is provided for the convenience and interest of other petroleum stamp collectors. It may well be incomplete , especially because I do not have copies of all these items myself. If you can correct errors or omissions, or if you can supply digital illustrations for additional items, I would be very grateful. Please contact me at scholle1@nmt.edu. If you have petroleum-related covers (FDC's or others) for sale or trade, I would also be very glad if you would contact me.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
Because the information on this page is contained a large table, nothing below
this note may show up on your browser until the table is completely loaded (and
that may take some time if you have a slow internet connection) — so please
be patient.
