Christmas Seals: TB Charity Seals which were issued near, at, or for Christmas and have Christmas themes. Since these TB Charity Seals were issued near Christmas and have Christmas themes, they have also become known as Christmas Seals. First, and foremost, they are TB Charity Seals, issued to raise funds for the fight against tuberculosis. We call them TB Charity Seals, and in the instance of the U.S. and Canada, simply Christmas Seals. We classify them as Charity Seals.
Christmas Seals are located in specific categories within our store. The categories somewhat follow the catalogs of Dick Green which were originally compiled in 1930 and are still followed by the stamp collecting community today. Mr. Green in his catalog, “Green’s Catalog of the Tuberculosis Seals of the World”, divides TB Charity Seals into three parts:
Select one of the following links or select a category on the left to proceed to your area of interest.
Part 1: U.S. National Christmas Seals, Part 2: U.S. Local TB Seals, and Part 3: Foreign TB Seals.
Dick Green’s catalog has been in existence for over 80 years. Continually updated, it is a valuable resource to those philatelists, dealers, and collectors who specialize in the study and collection of “TB Charity Seals”.
