Postage stamps, booklets, flight, censored and maritime mail and philatelic covers of St Lucia for sale.
Possibly due to the beauty of the island, St Lucia constantly attracts stamp collectors. The classic stamp issues can form a lovely collection. A plating study is possible but very difficult due to the large sheet size.
The type set postage due stamps are the focus of attention it seems at the moment while the more recent issues provide a colourful and straightforward collection.
Postal history collectors will struggle these days to find pre stamp covers. Later Parish postmarks can be found but are difficult on cover.
There are two philatelic handbooks on St Lucia:- Dr G.G. Ritchies "St Lucia. A philatelic history." and Alistair Kinnons new work, "Piton Post."

This work is a classic in the field of colonial and Caribbean literature, embodying as it does one of the clearest statements of eighteenth century philosophy regarding the relations which should exist between a metropole and its outlying possessions.
