Please, check the superb webpage Un-manned Satellite (or Spacecraft) Philately held by Don Hilger and Garry Toth. It is a very useful and extensive compilation of stamps issued worldwide as well as space covers and first day covers. There, as in the major part of web researches, press Crtl+F and in the box you will see on the screen write the word you are searching for; "Telstar" in this case. One list it for covers and another one for stamps. I hope this link helps you now and in this and upcoming space projects. |

Thank you Antoni, but unfortunately I only have a mobile phone and although I'm planning on getting a computer soon, I cannot as yet follow your advice...I am also aware of Don Hilger and Garry Toth's excellent website (and, like yourself, I have contributed images to it). However, as comprehensive as it is, it is not a definitive listing. | |
