Wisconsin Stamps -- Wisconsin Stamps in FDOI order - this page

      This list is indebted to John Pare and his article, "A Checklist of Wisconsin First Day of Issue and First Day of Sale Cities" which was published in the Wisconsin Postal History Society's journal, "Badger Postal History", August 2014, Vol. 54(1), page 12.

      city (in bold) = the subject is Wisconsin related even if it was not released in a Wisconsin City.
      any city (in bold) = released nation-wide and Wisconsin First Day cancels are known to exist.
      Sc20/pp = 2020 Scott Specialized Catalog, the latest edition I own / page number(s).
      LnYY/pp = pages where more details about this issue can be found in the 1983-2010 editions of the "Linn's U.S. Stamp Yearbook" .

What's New on this page -- changes since 04-01-2022:
11-22-2024: Mystic Stamp Co. redesigned their site and broke all 80 links I had to them. It is likely that as soon as I replaced the links to them they would redesign their site and break them all again, so I deleted every link to them. There is no non-commercial site on the Web that lists all stamps and all postal stationery by Scott number with a separate page with detailed information about each issue.
07-09-2023: Added #4802.
