Showing items in Stamps and Covers - Martinique
Postage stamps, booklets, flight, censored and maritime mail and philatelic covers of Martinique for sale.
Like Guadeloupe the majority of collectors seem to be solely interested in postal history and neglect the stamp issues of Martinique.
There seems to be a large quantity of Martinique pre stamp covers available from time to time on the philatelic market.
Collectors should read Maurice Jamets "150 ans d histoire postale des anciennes colonies Francaises" which includes a listing to pre stamp postal markings.
