Free Town and Type Albums for Download
The PSS is pleased to provide comprehensive albums on a state by state basis for all precancel towns and types in the current Town and Type catalog. These albums contain a space for every precancel type from every town, more than 42,000 types in all the albums combined! You will find a downloadable PDF file for each state. There is one space for each type in each town. To distinguish the types, you will need the PSS Town and Type catalog, which you can order from HERE.

Notes Regarding the Albums:
The more valuable types have progressively darker box
borders, depending on the value of the precancel type:
Occasionally there are two or more types from a town, such as Type 841 from Buckland, Alaska, that differ in minor ways, as described in the PSS catalog footnotes. In this case, “a1” in the first 841 means that the distance between town and state is 1 mm, while in the second type the “a1.5” means that the distance is 1.5 mm. Click HERE to see a description of all of the footnotes in the PSS Town & Type catalog.
A few types only come on parcel post stamps, or on other non-standard sized stamps. You will find these boxes have the correct shapes.
The small album for the Territories comes in two flavors, depending on how you sort the town names versus the territory names.
