United States · 2024 ·

This is not a postage stamp, but the first quarterly issue for 2024 of the 'USA Philatelic' catalog. The cover features a collage of recent and upcoming US stamp issues, including the 'Love' stamp, Lunar New Year, and Black History Month commemoratives. It serves as a guide and order form for collectors interested in new issues from the United States Postal Service.

The USPS produces these free catalogs quarterly to promote its philatelic products, a practice that has evolved from simple announcement flyers to glossy, full-color magazines for the modern collector.
