A stamp is an object of design.

Postage Archive files ten stamps by the things designers actually look for: artist, typeface, color, technique, theme and era. Country and year are context, not the spine.

It is free, carries no advertising, and is fully indexable. Images circulate without watermarks — attribution rides in the filename and the alt text, so a stamp that ends up three sites away still points home.

We are not collectors and this is not a price guide. We are two people learning to be archivists in public, and every field on every page was set by one of us looking at the stamp.
