150 Years of Polish Post Stamps
The fist postage stamps to appear on Polish Lands were issued in 1850. This was under the occupation by Austria and Prussia.
The first Polish Postage Stamp was issued on 1st January 1860 circular No. 13 of the Royal Polish Post office dating from 14th December 1859. This stamp replaced the Russian stamps, then in circulation from 13 January 1858.
The first Polish Postage Stamp bearing the Coat of Arms of Polish Kingdom was used for internal use in the country of Poland and also in Russia. All other letters to foreign countries were sent by paying cash for postage. This stamp was withdrawn on 13th April 1865 and replaced by Russian stamp.
Earlier the reproductions of the first Polish Stamps were issued by the Polish Office on the following stamps
