This is my contribution to "demographilately" (it sounds dirty even
after you get used to it: see end of page). I coined
the word to refer to
"stamp collecting with a demographic theme". Shown are all the stamps I
could find in the
1991 Scott Catalog and a few I've added since. Those I have are shown by a "#" mark. If you want to send/sell me any I'm
missing, it's easy to reach
me. The "|" marks are there if
want to download this list -- you can convert such marks to column
separators for a spreadsheet.Question: Why is there no stamp honoring such early demographers as John Graunt, William Petty, Gregory King, William Farr? There are plenty for Edmund Halley, but those are for his comet not his life table.
