ATA CHECKLISTS—A MEMBER-TO

ATA CHECKLISTS—A MEMBER-TO-MEMBER SERVICE—ALPHABETICAL LISTING
(A topical listing is also available.) Listings for March-April 2017
POLICY FOR CHECKLIST USE. All American Topical Association (ATA) checklists are the property of the ATA, intended for use by members
and to promote topical collecting. These checklists are copyrighted and are not to be copied except by the ATA for distribution to its
members. Portions of a checklist may be used as part of a philatelic article or column if credit is given to the American Topical Association.
While every effort is made to provide accurate and timely checklists, the ATA cannot guarantee that these checklists are complete or error
free. Questions on the use of a checklist should be directed to the ATA Office. Members finding errors or omissions are encouraged to
send amending information to [email protected] to improve upon this members-only service. Please use the Stamp ID number in
the first column of each list to reference suggested changes.
Checklist titles are shown alphabetically. The number in parentheses after the checklist title is the number of stamp
issues that appears in the checklist. If a checklist title contains the term “misc/other,” there are additional related
checklists whose items are not included in that “misc/other” list. For example, the “Acting - Actors/Actresses
(misc/other)” list does not contain items included on available lists for individual actors/actresses – Charlie Chaplin and
Marilyn Monroe. The same is true for animals, presidents, kings, etc. See ATA’s Topical Checklist listing on our website
for groupings of items related to the “misc/other” lists.
In each checklist, the following information is included for each stamp issue:
Type of philatelic
Issue
Country
Issue date
(year, month, day)
Denomination
Scott catalogue
number
Description
Non-Scott numbered souvenir or
mini sheet?
Checklists marked with an asterisk(*) contain Beyond the Catalogue (BTC) items: Basic types of common philatelic items
issued by governments but not usually listed in Scott Standard Postage Stamp Catalogue, e.g., booklet covers, meter
stamps, postal cards, postal stationery, postmarks.
Costs for the checklists are:
Emailed (Excel file, or .pdf file if requested): A penny per issue. A checklist with 195 stamp listings costs $1.95. Mini-topics (checklists
with less than 50 items) cost 50 cents. Maxi-topics (checklists with more than 5,000 items) cost $50.
Mailed: Add five cents per page for printing (~50 items per page), plus actual postage to mail. Contact ATA Office for
assistance.
Checklist Updates: ATA members who purchase checklists from the new dATAbase (since 1 May 2014) are entitled
to free updates once/year as long as ATA membership is maintained. Contact the ATA Office for your update(s).
