History

A concise historical narrative of NAICS Code 423920-21 covering global milestones and recent developments within the United States.

  • The history of the Stamps (Wholesale) industry dates back to the mid-19th century when the first postage stamp was issued in the United Kingdom in 1840. The first adhesive postage stamp in the United States was issued in 1847, and since then, the industry has grown significantly. In the early days, stamps were sold by post offices, but as the hobby of stamp collecting grew, specialized dealers emerged. The first stamp auction was held in 1872 in London, and the first stamp catalog was published in 1861. In the 20th century, the industry saw the introduction of new technologies, such as photogravure printing, which allowed for the mass production of stamps. The industry has also been impacted by political events, such as the fall of the Berlin Wall, which led to a surge in demand for East German stamps. In recent years, the industry has seen a decline in demand for traditional stamp collecting, but an increase in demand for stamps as an investment. In the United States, the Stamps (Wholesale) industry has a rich history dating back to the 19th century. The first stamp dealer in the United States was John W. Kline, who opened a shop in New York City in 1862. The industry grew rapidly in the early 20th century, with the establishment of stamp clubs and societies. The American Philatelic Society, founded in 1886, is the largest nonprofit stamp collecting organization in the world. In the 1960s and 1970s, the industry saw a decline in demand for traditional stamp collecting, but an increase in demand for stamps as an investment. The rise of the internet has also impacted the industry, with many collectors now buying and selling stamps online. Despite these challenges, the industry remains a vibrant and important part of the American economy.
