Philatelic_calendar
A philatelic calendar is a collection of postmarks from each day, month, and year during the period collected. The stamps collected may be limited to the stamps of one country, or even to a particular issue such as Penny Lilac. A philatelic calendar extending from the first day of issue of the Penny Black to the present would include stamps canceled on each day from May 1, 1840 to the present, about 62,000 stamps as of 2011. Only someone who possesses the sole used example of the Penny Black from May 1, 1840 could assemble a complete calendar.
- "Philatelic calendar" can also refer to a schedule of philatelic events such as stamp club meetings, philatelic exhibitions, or auctions.
